The Billboard Music Awards celebrated yet another iteration of its beloved show on Sunday, with American singer-songwriter The Weeknd dominating the ceremony with 10 awards, including the climactic top artist trophy, followed by the late Pop Smoke with five, and BTS and Bad Bunny with four apiece.According to E! News, the finalists were chosen based on their performance on Billboard charts as well as music sales, streaming platform statistics, radio airplay, and social engagement.The Weeknd, while accepting one of the several awards on camera earlier in the evening promised a change of stylistic pace to come in his future album and performance cycles. He said, "The after hours are done and the dawn is coming."At another point, he made a joke after beginning with a slight show-of-religiosity fake-out, "I'd like to thank God... that I don't have to wear that red suit anymore."Last year, Post Malone took home the most awards with nine out of his 16 nominations. This year, Pink was announced as the Billboard Icon award, Trae tha Truth as the Change Maker winner and Drake continued his historic winning streak, as he accepted the Artist of the Decade Award.While receiving the award he was joined on stage by his son Adonis, his mother and father, and his closest friends to celebrate. Currently, the Canadian rapper holds the title for most Billboard Music Awards wins with 27, and was nominated for an impressive seven more tonight.The evening featured a star-studded lineup of presenters including Cynthia Erivo, Chelsea Handler, Dixie D'Amelio, Gabrielle Union, Lena Waithe, Leslie Odom Jr. and more.Meanwhile, Pink was honoured with the Icon Award, and her daughter Willow made a stunning cameo during her performance.
