This year’s Billboard Music Awards isn’t about Kelly Clarkson, per se, except it’s also absolutely about Kelly Clarkson. Other artists are nominated as a courtesy, sure, but she’s already the runaway winner. After calling for action over silence on the Santa Fe shooting, Clarkson officially kicked off her hosting duties with an opening medley — not of her own songs, but everyone else’s songs. The cover queen covered the past year’s biggest hits — “Look What You Made Me Do,†“24K Magic,†“HUMBLE.,†you name it — in front of most of the artists who made them. Take notes, ya’ll.
