We're just days away from the 2016 Billboard Music Awards and Ciara is pulling out all the stops to prep for her upcoming hosting gig.

The singer will be taking center stage alongside her fellow co-host for the evening, Ludacris, during Sunday night's big event.

And as soon as the crooner was announced as the co-host for the Billboard Music Awards, her focus turned to one major thing: fashion.

"I have tried on over 10 dresses, for starters," the singer told E! News. "When you get the call to do a show like this, the one thing that comes in your head is, ‘I get to do a lot of wardrobe changes!'"

And what will Russell Wilson's fiancé be doing hours leading up to the main event Sunday?

"For such a big task like this I want to be relaxed so I'm just praying, please, I want to be relaxed!"
