Billboard Music Awards: All the winners as Post Malone leads way with nine gongs
Post Malone was the biggest winner at the delayed Billboard Music Awards, which had been postponed in April due to the coronavirus pandemic
Post Malone was the big winner at the delayed Billboard Music Awards, taking home nine gongs including top artist.
The annual ceremony was supposed to take place in Las Vegas in April but was shifted to Los Angeles in October as a result of the pandemic.
There was no audience inside Hollywood's Dolby Theatre, leaving winners to address an eerily empty venue.
The latest major awards ceremony to take place amid the pandemic also featured some of the winners wearing masks.
Accepting the biggest prize of the night, top artist, hip-hop star Post Malone said he was "blown away" by the success.
He described the current turmoil as "a weird time for everybody" and told those watching proceedings on TV to "stay strong and just spread love wherever you go".
Post Malone, who was recognised for his album Hollywood's Bleeding, also won top male artist.
