Billboard Music Award
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Billboard Music Awards, held annually in December, is one of four major US music awards shows presented each year (the others being the American Music Awards, the Grammys, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony).
The BMAs have been held annually since 1990, and like the AMAs, this awards show honors winners based on popularity—in this case, based on Billboard's year-end music charts, with awards for top selling album/artist/single in a particular genre.
Since its inception, the BMAs have been telecast live on the FOX network.
Since 1992, the awards also held out a Billboard Century Award which pays tribute to some of the classic artists in each decade.
The 2006 Billboard Music Awards will be held at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada on Monday, December 4. It will be shown live on the FOX Network live at 8:00.
