Here's all you need to know about last night's awards
It's always one of the biggest nights in the music calendar, and this year's Billboard Music Awards ceremony was no different - particularly after the last couple of years.
It took place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and was hosted by Sean 'Puffy' Combs. The big winners on the night - which celebrates the biggest chart-toppers in music - were K-Pop superstars BTS, who have now become the most-awarded group in the ceremony's history after clocking up their 12th award.
Canadian rapper Drake scooped both the 'Top Artist' and 'Top Male Artist' awards as well as 'Top Rap Artist', while Olivia Rodrigo capped off a huge 12 months by winning both 'Top New Artist' and 'Top Female Artist', as well as the 'Top Streaming Songs' and 'Top Billboard Global 200 Artist' awards.
Other big winners included Ed Sheeran, The Rolling Stones, Taylor Swift and Bad Bunny. Kanye West (aka Ye) won awards in the 'Gospel' and Christian' categories, while Justin Bieber and The Kid Laroi's collaboration 'Stay' won numerous awards.
