BTS makes new friends on Billboard red carpet

Here is a list of new friends spotted at the group’s historic moment on site.

1. The Chainsmokers

The Sunday award show brought BTS and the EDM duo Chainsmokers together, as the two artists had some hangout time backstage. 

The official @BBMAs Twitter account tweeted out a photo of the group posing in the sunny Las Vegas weather before the award show. 

Alex Pall of the duo also shared a video on the group’s Instagram which showed him saying “We got our boys right here, let‘s go!” and BTS members cheering in response. 

Chainsmokers also dropped a group selfie with the caption that had tons of fans totally stoked. Teasing for a possible collaboration with the sensational K-pop group, the caption read, “See you guys in the summer!”


2. Halsey

American pop star Halsey, who also performed at the show, expressed love over the group straight to their faces while in the audience during a commercial break. 

In the video posted on her Instagram, Halsey is seen wearing a pearlescent bra paired with voluminous khaki pants, standing face-to-face with the seven members. 

She says in excitement, “I love you guys. Your videos are so cool! So great!” The boys are also seen thanking her in unison. 

Halsey, in collaboration with The Chainsmokers, won the Billboard Music Award for Top Hot 100 Song with “Closer.”

3. Camila Cabello

Camila Cabello, a rising solo star and former Fifth Harmony member, met the band backstage and doled out smooches to all seven members. 

Donning an orangey-red and extra feminine lace slip dress, the Cuban-born-American pop star also took an adorable group photo with them.
