Olivia Rodrigo, Kanye West and Doja Cat were the big winners at the Billboard Music Awards 2022 today (May 15).
The bulk of the awards were handed out during a TikTok livestream, while the rest of the winners were revealed at a ceremony held at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena tonight.

Rodrigo took home the most awards on the night with seven, while West followed on six wins at this year’s BBMAs. The ‘Sour’ star collected Top New Artist, Top Hot 100 Artist, Top Female Artst and more. West, meanwhile, picked up trophies including Top Christian Artist, Top Gospel Artist and Top Christian Album and Top Gospel Album, both for ‘Donda’. Doja collected four awards on the night, including Top R&B Female Artist and Top R&B Album for ‘Planet Her’.
Going into the ceremony, The Weeknd held the most nominations with 17 nods, followed by Doja Cat on 14. West, Rodrigo and Justin Bieber were close behind, appearing in 13 categories each.
The BBMAs 2022 was hosted by Diddy and featured performances by Megan Thee Stallion, Silk Sonic, Burna Boy, Florence + The Machine, Ed Sheeran and Machine Gun Kelly. Morgan Wallen’s appearance was criticised as “tone deaf”, after it followed messages about social justice and anti-racism. Wallen was banned from the 2021 ceremony after a video of him saying a racial slur emerged online.
Travis Scott made his first major public appearance after the crowd crush tragedy that occurred during his headline set at last year’s Astroworld festival. The incident left 10 people dead and, according to a recent filing, thousands injured.
“To have Morgan and Travis be able to come back and touch the stage again with the mindset of getting a second chance at life,” Diddy said in a recent interview with Billboard. “Everybody in the room is getting a second chance at life, you know, because we’re back outside with no masks on. We need love and I’m excited about celebrating that.”
