Billboard Music Awards: What You Didn't See

After thanking the original members of Destiny’s Child and her husband (“I love me some Jay-Z”) during her Millennium Award acceptance speech at the Billboard Music Awards, Beyoncé reunited backstage with her fellow DC divas Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams.

Nicki Minaj was embraced by her Young Money boss Lil Wayne fresh off her performance with Britney Spears, and Rihanna held Bey’s nephew Julez in her arms like a baby as he hammed it up.

Jay-Z caught up with RiRi and signed an autograph for Travis Barker’s young son, while Weezy and Justin Bieber posed with rock royalty U2.
