Billboard Music Awards 2023: Taylor Swift racks up 10 wins, including top artist
Country music reigned supreme at the (BBMAs).
"Last Night" singer Morgan Wallen won big Sunday night at the annual music ceremony, which rolled out its winner celebrations and performances online this year. Wallen took home a string of top prizes – 11 in total – such as top male artist, top Hot 100 artist, top streaming songs artist and top country artist.
"Last awards show I went to, we came home empty-handed. And this one, I don’t have enough hands for them all," Wallen told fans after his BBMAs victory. "Either way, I promise I’m going to stay the same regardless if we come home with 10 or 0. I’m going to give you my all every single night, every single time I go into the studio."
Hot on Wallen's heels was country wunderkind turned pop superstar Taylor Swift.
The "Anti-Hero" singer took home 10 awards, including wins for top artist, top country female artist, top Hot 100 songwriter and top song sales artist. Swift heaped praise onto her devoted Swifties for her “unreal†sweep.
"None of this happens without you," Swift told fans in a prerecorded message. "I’m so honored that this year you made the Eras Tour so magical. You went and saw the movie. You cared about my rerecordings. I just love you so much. I feel like the luckiest person in the world to have you in my corner and caring about the music that I make."
