American Music Awards 2025: Full list of winners as Billie Eilish sweeps seven awards
Hosted by Jennifer Lopez, this year's show saw Billie Eilish, Beyoncé, Post Malone, SZA, and Eminem walk away with the big awards.
Eilish, who didn't attend the show because of her world tour, took home seven awards, including Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Favourite Touring Artist, Favourite Female Pop Artist, Favourite Pop Album and Favourite Pop Song.
Beyoncé took home the awards for Favourite Female Country Artist and Favourite Country Album, while SZA won both Favourite R&B Song and Favourite Female R&B Artist.
Eminem won his first AMA in 15 years, for Favourite Male Hip-Hop Artist and Favourite Hip-hop Album, and Post Malone took home the prizes for Favourite Male Country Artist and Favourite Country Song.
Other winners include Becky G for Favourite Female Latin Artist, RM for Favourite K-Pop Artist, Doechii for Social Song of the Year, Gracie Abrams for Best New Artist, and Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars for Favourite Music Video and Collaboration of the Year.
Janet Jackson performed a medley of her career's biggest hits and received the Icon Award, saying she didn't 'consider myself an icon.'
'I'm so grateful. I mean, no disrespect in any way, but I don't consider myself an icon. My family, myself, our dream wasn't ever to be famous; we weren't raised like that,' Jackson said. 'We always had a special love for music, dancing and singing, and fame came with the result of hard work and dedication.'
Rod Stewart, who closed out the show with a performance of 'Forever Young,' received the Lifetime Achievement Award from five of his children.
'I am absolutely flabbergasted, I didn't know they were here, my children,' he said. '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 so many years later, I'm here.'
Below is the full list of winners.
