After performances from American music's biggest stars, including Pink, Kelly Clarkson, Shawn Mendes, Selena Gomez, Macklemore, Christina Aguilera and more, BTS was up, performing their wildly successful single "DNA," from their 2017 album Love Yourself: Her.

According to Billboard, "DNA" accumulated 20 million views in 20 hours and 48 minutes when it was first released on Sept. 14. That is, undeniably, insane.
