The 2012 Billboard Music Awards, hosted by “Modern Family” stars Julie Bowen and Ty Burrell, got off to a rockin’ start last night, when LMFAO kicked off the night’s performances with a high energy performance of “Party Rock Anthem,” with “Sexy and I Know It” remixed in. Other performances came from Cee Lo Green, The Wanted, Alicia Keys, Carrie Underwood, Justin Bieber, Stevie Wonder with Alicia Keys, and more. Tributes were also paid to the late Whitney Houston, Donna Summer, Adam Yauch and Robin Gibb.
