During "The Late Late Show" with James Corden on December 13, 2016, Mars included "Versace on the Floor" on the popular segment Carpool Karaoke. Nevertheless, its first televised performance was during the 2017 Billboard Music Awards, through a live stream from the 24K Magic World Tour, in Amsterdam. Mars wore an XXIV merch ball cap, a blazer and white sneakers and sang the track with his band. During his performance "Tetris-like blocks craned down" providing a visual with purple, blue and yellow colours. Laser lights appeared while Mars and two band members danced. At the end of the show, Mars was standing on top of a "Versace logo". Emily Yahr of "The Washington Post" felt Mars' performance was one of the five best moments of the night saying that his rendition "had more energy" than some people singing live in Vegas. Nick Williams, writing for "Billboard", called it "electrifying" and found Mars' vocals to be "powerful" and "emotive". Brian Josephs of "Spin" and Lucas Villa of AXS praised the show and called it "glowing". Villa added, that Mars' vocals "shined". "Time"s Raisa Bruner criticized the inclusion of Mars' live performance calling it "unnecessary", saying it slowed the show and brought its energy down.
