Taylor Swift was up to her old tricks at the Billboard Music Awards. The songstress stuck to her classic, beautiful look with thick black and blue eyeliner and a gorgeous pink lipstick hue. Her hair was kept simply slicked-back into a ponytail with her blunt bangs on full display.

Selena Gomez sizzled on the red carpet for the Billboard Music Awards. The singer's cat-eye eyeliner was sexy and smoky, while her Barbie-pink lipstick played off the neon hues on her dress. Selena finished the look off with an undone ponytail.
