Madonna is intent on staying current in pop music, and she spared no expense for her performance at the Billboard Awards tonight; she performed her new song, "Medellin" with Spanish language singer Maluma, along with a number of holograms.

Madonna and Maluma were surrounded by holograms in a performance that cost a reported $5 million. Fans on twitter were divided as to how great Madonna was.
