Billie Eilish has taken home the big prize of Artist of the Year at the 51st Annual American Music Awards.
The singer saw off stiff competition in the category from Kendrick Lamar - the pre-show front-runner with 10 nominations - and others including Morgan Wallen, Ariana Grande, Chappell Roan, Post Malone, Sabrina Carpenter, SZA, Taylor Swift and Zach Bryan.
She also swept the board with Album of the Year for Hit Me Hard and Soft; Song of the Year for Birds of a Feather; Favourite Touring Artist; Favourite Female Pop Artist; Favourite Pop Album; and Favourite Pop Song.
"Oh my God, artist of the year, this is so crazy," Eilish gushed via video link. "I feel speechless, thank you all so much. I love you so much. I wish I could be there tonight, I'm on tour, getting to see you all over the world. Thank you to the AMAs, thank you to the fans, I know you voted for this. This means the world to me. I am so lucky to get to do what I do, and to do it with you! I love you all so much, thank you guys."
The glittering event, held at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas, also saw Bruno Mars rewarded as Favourite Male Pop Artist.
Gracie Abrams was honoured with the New Artist gong.
Jennifer Lopez, in a nude, sparkling jumpsuit, hosted the show for the second time in 10 years, following her previous star turn at the ceremony in 2015.
