"You went and saw the movie, you cared about my re-recordings… I love you so much, I feel like the luckiest person in the world to have you in my corner and caring about the music that I make, so thank you, thank you, thank you, 10 million times."

Country singer Morgan Wallen was the artist with the most wins of the night, taking home 11 awards, while Drake followed him with five wins.
