The Spaniard was accompanied by his compatriot Pablo López and the Latin

boyband

One of the most emotional moments of the night is when Nicky Jam received the Hall of Fame award from his father, José Rivera.

Both did not contain the tears and joined in a long hug.

Finally, José Feliciano received the first Billboard Legend award.

Feliciano accepted the award through a video.

He was unable to join the ceremony due to Hurricane Ian, which hit South Florida the day before the ceremony.

The themes that premiered during the Billboard

The stage of the Watsco Center in Miami was the perfect setting for some artists to present their new songs.

In addition to Chayanne with "Como tú y yo" and Raphael, who premiered "De tantan gente", Maluma was one of those who surprised by presenting his new song "Junio".

In addition, his followers were speechless when at the end of the song, he approached his girlfriend - who was in the audience - and kissed her on the mouth.

Camilo also presented the official theme of the Qatar 2022 World Cup on Telemundo, a network that broadcasts the World Cup in the United States.
