Among other winners, rapper Ice Spice was named best new artist. Stray Kids, a band put together through a reality show, won the best K-pop award, and SZA scored best R&B video for “Shirt”.
Colombian pop singer Shakira was honored with the Video Vanguard Award for lifetime achievement. After performing a bilingual medley of her hits including “Hips Don’t Lie” and “Whenever, Wherever,” the singer saluted her fans.
“Thank you so much for being my army and helping me fight all my battles,” she said.
