Drake was the big winner at the 2017 Billboard Music Awards that was held in Las Vegas on Sunday. The rapper took home a whopping 13 trophies after a fiery performance of his song Gylachester from his 2017 playlist-album More Life.
Drake, in fact, beat Adele's record of 12 to become the artist with the most awards in a single year.
Celine Dion also took the stage by storm with her performance of the classic My Heart Will Go On and left a large part of the audience in tears. And she looked stunning while at it too.
Cher too turned the clock back with her performance of Believe and If I Could Turn Back Time. She received the prestigious Icon award.
Miley Cyrus is back - thankfully without the twerk - and enthralled the audience with a performance of the just-released Malibu.
K-pop sensation BTS were not only the best-dressed boy band at the award show, but also picked up the Top Social Artist trophy.
