On November 19th, the Billboard Music Awards were live-streamed on various social media and website pages. With the various winners, the performances were hard to find given they were recorded on each nominated artist’s social media accounts and other unknown platforms. Canadian singer, Tate McRae, gave a performance very similar to her performances on Saturday Night Live.
