2016 AMAs Winners Revealed! (Full List Inside)


Last night ABC broadcasted the 44th Annual American Music Awards that happened live at The Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. The musical event was hosted by supermodel GiGi Hadid and Jay Pharaoh (who recently announced his departure from Saturday Night Live). The AMAs went off without a hitch with its usual industry jabs (and even some political ones), made by the hosts and performances from stars such as Best Collab winners Fifth Harmony, Artist of The Year winner Ariana Grande and more. Justin Bieber took away the most awards that night with four followed by Drake with three (unless you want to include his collaboration with RiRi that won Best Soul/R&B song). Another special thing to note is that the award for Best Soundtrack went to the late Prince for his Purple Rain album. His family was there to accept the award on his behalf. Below includes the full list of winners:
