One of the best moments of the night was when Ozuna took the stage to perform his hit song “Te Quiero Pa’ Mi.” The singer looked dapper in a black and white suit as he performed the sexy song for the adoring crowd.

Karol G and J Balvin’s “Mi Cama” Performance
Latin superstars Karol G and J Balvin took the stage together to perform their chart-topping collaboration “Mi Cama” at the 2021 Latin Billboard Music Awards.

The two stars then took their places side-by-side on a elevated platform as they sang the rest of the song together. Their chemistry was undeniable as they danced and flirted with each other throughout the performance.
At the end of the song, Karol G planted a passionate kiss on J Balvin’s cheek, leaving everyone in attendance wanting more. It was a truly unforgettable moment that had everyone talking.

He was quickly joined by his bandmates Zabdiel De Jesús, Richard Camacho, Joel Pimentel and Erick Brian Colon, who showed off their choreography skills as they danced around him.
The performance ended with Velez kneeling on the ground as his bandmates surrounded him and sang the final melody of “Tan Fácil.”
