Justin Bieber was among the people honored with awards at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards last night (6 awards in total) but it was a moment that occurred offstage (but on camera) that is getting all of the attention today. Bieber attended the awards show with his girlfriend Selena Gomez and when his name was announced as an award winner, he planted a big ol’ closed-mouth KISS on Selena on national television! You could hear all of the hearts of Bieber fans around the world breaking into a million pieces at that exact moment. Ah, young love.
Justin Bieber had an amazing night at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards that included six awards –and a kiss from Selena Gomez. The 17-year-old singing sensation took home a slew of awards at the Las Vegas awards show, including Digital Artist of the Year, Top New Artist and the Fan Favorite award and before be took to the stage to accept his New Artist award, he planted a kiss on Selena who he was sitting with him in the audience. On stage, he didn’t thank Selena specifically, but gave shout outs to “my whole family, [talent manager] Scooter Braun, Usher – basically everyone who helped me get out of my hometown and live my dream.” Access Hollywood caught up with Biebs backstage after his big win, where he talked about his big night. “I’m having a great time, everything’s been great, really excited,” he told Access. “It’s a dream come true.” While he was taken aback by his own accolades, the young Canadian star told Access that Britney Spears’ performance earlier in the night with Rihanna left him in awe. “She killed, she rocked it, always,” he said. “I used to have a big – I still do have a big crush on Britney… I didn’t get the chance to tell her [about my crush] but, she knows… love you Britney!” Despite his affection for Britney, in the pressroom, Justin gushed about Selena when asked about the congratulatory kiss. “She’s amazing,” he said of Selena.
So sweet, so innocent … so cute! Let’s not forget, tho, that Biebs and Selena first shared a smooch on Oscar Night back in February and then again locked lips at a press conference in Indonesia earlier this month (not to mention the countless bouts of spit-swapping that very likely occurs off camera and out of sight). But this Billboard Music Awards kiss is the most high-profile smooch to date. Let’s hope all thoseBieber fans crushed by the sight of him kissing Selena can get thru this very rough time in their young lives. Oh and congrats to Biebs on his 6 Billboard Music Awardswins.
