(CNN) ––
The Billboard Awards are held this Wednesday and Kelly Clarkson is the presenter.
Despite not having an audience inside the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, Clarkson delivered it all with a fiery rendition of "Higher Love," featuring Sheila E. and Pentatonix.
"Tonight is about the way music touches us all because music connects with us in so many ways, no matter who you are, sometimes it literally touches us," Clarkson said.
Numerous performers took the stage to perform throughout the night, including Alicia Keys, John Legend, Brandy, and Luke Combs.
Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish lead with the most nominations.
