Taylor Swift ties Drake’s record at Billboard Music Awards 2023 - full list of BBMAs winners
The Billboard Music Awards 2023 saw Taylor Swift tie with Drake for the most decorated artist in the music ceremony's history.


Taylor Swift has tied Drake as the most decorated artist in the 2023 Billboard Music Awards history, following Sunday's (November 18) ceremony. The global pop icon walked away with 10 prizes including the coveted trophy for Top Artist.
Swift's victory came after she postponed her Saturday night (November 18) concert in Rio de Janeiro, citing "extreme temperatures" as the reason. The announcement followed the tragic passing of 23-year-old Ana Clara Benevides Machado, who had attended Swift's concert on Friday (November 17).

Morgan Wallen surprised fans by winning big at Sunday night's Billboard Music Awards. The country singer swept eleven categories and became the first country artist to win in the Top Male Artist category.
Highlights of the 2023 Billboard Music Awards included Mariah Carey performing the festive favourite ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’ - the first time the hit song has been performed on an awards show. The Christmas icon arrived on stage riding a ski lift, while surrounded by dancers on ice skates.
