The best and worst dressed celebrities at the event

The Electronic Dance Music Awards 2016 was held in Los Angeles on April 17, 2016, and it was a night to remember! The awards show featured some of the biggest names in the EDM industry, and the red carpet was full of glitz, glamour, and unforgettable fashion.

Some of the best dressed celebrities at the event included Rihanna, who donned a sparkling silver dress; Nicki Minaj, who wore a figure-hugging black dress with cutouts; and Zedd, who looked dapper in a black suit with white detailing.

On the other hand, there were also some celebrities who missed the mark with their red carpet looks. Katy Perry, for example, wore a bright green dress that was unfortunately not very flattering. Justin Bieber also raised eyebrows with his decision to wear overalls on the red carpet.

Overall, it was a night full of surprises – both good and bad – when it came to celebrity fashion.
