From the most incredible performances to heart-stopping speeches, women rocked Los Angeles’ YouTube Theater last night on and backstage. Hey everybody it’s Rania Aniftos at Billboard Women In Music recapping everything you missed at the year’s biggest celebration of women. Guests packed into the lively venue that was decked out for the night. Tracee Ellis Ross hosted the event and our rising star Victoria Monét kicked it off with an energetic performance.

We watched as Ice Spice accept our Hitmaker honor. Shout-out to all the women in the Bronx, shout-out to all the women in New York. Shout-out to all the women in this building right now. Y’all look really pretty. And we saw our powerhouse Charli XCX take the stage. And then they both hung out backstage with Katy Perry, girl power indeed! Demi Lovato teamed up with global force Luísa Sonza with vocals that captivated the crowd.

And are not “Super Shy” group of the year asked What’s your ETA? I absolutely loved the NewJeans performance. And speaking of performances, Karol G killed it. And not only that she gave such an inspiring speech.

Karol G
It might be the most significant and important recognitions of all my career. This is super special.
