Her awards are Artist of the Year, Album of the Year for 'Hit Me Hard and Soft', Favorite Touring Artist, Favorite Female Pop Artist, Favorite Pop Album for 'Hit Me Hard and Soft,' and Song of the Year and Favorite Pop Song both for 'Birds of a Feather.'
Billie, who is currently on tour, sent a video message.
'Oh my god, Artist of the Year. This is so crazy. I feel speechless. Thank you so much, I love you all so much," she said.
'I wish I could be there so much, I'm on tour getting to see you all over the world. Thank you to the AMAs, thank you to the fans and I know you voted for this. This means the world to me and I'm just so lucky to get to do what I do and to do it with you. I love you all so much and thank you guys."
Meanwhile, Rod was presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award by five of his eight children.
'When I started singing in the early '60s, well before all of you lot were here, the reason I got into it was because I had this burning ambition to sing. That's all I wanted to do. I didn't want to be rich or famous, and a few years later, picking up this wonderful award,' he said in his speech.

Janet accepted the Icon Award and gave her first televised performance in seven years with 'Someone to Call My Lover' and 'All For You.'

"My story, my family's story, it's truly an American story. This would have only happened in America. The one thing that I hope for is that I've been an inspiration to others and artists to follow their dreams and succeed.'

Catriona Gray attends ‘Mayhem' concert in a Lady Gaga-inspired look
Catriona Gray was among the celebrities who did not miss catching Lady Gaga's 'Mayhem' concert in Singapore, the only Southeast Asian stop on the pop star's world tour. On Instagram, the Miss Universe 2018 shared her glam for the concert, which was inspired by Lady Gaga's look in the end scene of the 'Paparazzi' music video released in 2009. Catriona's look featured a blonde bob cut wig styled by Paul Nebres and a smoky mug with glitter falling off her eyes, cosplaying as tears. 'Hala, iiyak nanaman siya, this time in glitter,' Catriona wrote in the caption. In a separate post, the Filipino-Australian beauty queen shared her outfit for the concert: a little black dress adorned with a panel of gold metallic fringe that runs vertically down the front. Aside from Catriona, other Filipino celebrities who did not miss out on Lady Gaga's concert were Julie Anne San Jose, Rayver Cruz, and Vice Ganda, to name a few. The 'Mayhem' concert is Lady Gaga's first Singapore concert in 13 years. She last performed in the Little Red Dot in 2012 for her 'Born This Way' tour. — Hermes Joy Tunac/LA, GMA Integrated News
