Miguel brought some rock and soul to Las Vegas on Saturday with his headlining performance at Day 2 of the iHeartRadio Music Festival.
Following an introduction from Steve Harvey, the R&B maverick stormed the stage of the MGM Grand Garden Arena dressed in all black. Miguel delivered a flawless 20-minute set of hits from his two albums, including a solo version of “#Beautiful.”
Backstage he caught up with Boyz II Men members Shawn Stockman and Nathan Morris.
Enjoy Miguel’s stirring set below:

PJ4MJJ I am disappointed in Miguel’s performances, lol. I love his music, but uh…
EscapeInRhythm I’m watching Miguel’s again now..lol..He’s got work to do, but this might be the best of all his shows so far.
PJ4MJJ yeah he’s got a lot of work to do. I’m convinced he thinks he’s prince too! Haha
EscapeInRhythm I see he got rid of the Little Richard hairstyle…lol…
PJ4MJJ haha!
EscapeInRhythm To me, he uses too much electric guitar in his live shows. Needs to dial it back on some songs..
PJ4MJJ I think most of the instruments overpower him. :/
EscapeInRhythm I remember Whitney telling Brandy/Monica not to let the band overpower them (rehearsal she watched right before she died).
PJ4MJJ wow…
EscapeInRhythm Yep, she told them twice to tell the band to tone it down.
EscapeInRhythm And I don’t know why Miguel introduced himself at the end of his Vegas set last night. They know who he is now..lol..
PJ4MJJ right! That’s what I was thinking. It felt like some amateur show the way he did that
