Florida Georgia Line bagged the win for the category of ‘Top Country Duo/Group Artist’ at the recently held 2018 Billboard Music Awards.
The Awards took place on Sunday (May 20) and was hosted by American songstress Kelly Clarkson at the MGM Grand Las Vegas.
Kelly Clarkson opened the show with a tribute to the victims of Friday’s mass shooting at Santa Fe High School in Texas. “I’m a Texas girl and my home state has had so much heartbreak over this past year. And once again, y’all, we’re grieving for more kids that have died for just no reason at all” the singer and event host commented.
Artists from across the music spectrum performed throughout the evening, with Korean pop band BTS becing the first-ever Korean act to perform at the ceremony, debuting their new single “Fake Love.” They took home the award for Top Social Artist.
Old Dominion and Zac Brown Band were the runners up in the Top Country Duo/Group Artist category, which was won by Florida Georgia Line.
