Miguel Lands on Fan During Billboard Music Awards Performance

Miguel

Miguel brought his smooth moves to the Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas. Dressed in a crisp white suit, the R&B crooner performed his hit single “Adorn.”

But the performance took a turn for the worse. While trying to jump across the stage, he landed on top of a female fan. But he kept it moving, finishing out the performance.

Not to worry, the girl was OK and was seen backstage doing an interview with Miguel.

“got caught up in the moment, thank goodness Khyati is okay,” he later tweeted.

Miguel Showcases His Style for VEVO

Miguel

Miguel is not only known for his progressive music, but also his cutting-edge style. The “Adorn” crooner takes VEVO to his favorite L.A. store, Opening Ceremony, for their “Stylized” series. He introduces us to his “style partner” Jasmine Benjamin and picks out some designer threads to try on.

“Style is just another word for personality,” says Miguel as he tries on an MVIO jacket. “When it comes to aesthetics, I think it’s all an extension of what you believe in and what you stand for and your lifestyle.”

He shares his love for vintage sunglasses and hats, which he only wears when he doesn’t feel like doing his hair.

When he finds something he likes, he’ll use words such as “kill city,” “killer,” “murky,” and “Murk McGurk.”

Rad times, indeed.

Kendrick Lamar and Miguel

Miguel connects with Kendrick Lamar in the live performance video for the remix to “How Many Drinks?” After giving us a behind-the-scenes look, the R&B crooner rolls out the full video.

He performs against a red backdrop and gets a hand from some sexy ladies on background vocals. K-Dot, clad in an L.A. Kings jersey and patterned shirt and shorts, even gets on the mic and pretends to sing Miguel’s parts.

“I’m super excited about this video because I haven’t seen a live performance like we’ve done in a really long time,” said Miguel. “It was really important to capture the artistry and the performance, and almost elevate the integrity and the artistry of the song because it’s a pretty straightforward record.”
