During his acceptance speech, he said he put "everything" into the effort, adding, "I've never worked on something like this in my life. We made something I feel that is undeniable, that I can stand by today." He also thanked God, his mother, his family and his team.
Meanwhile, Lipa nabbed Female Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act. "Stranger Things" star Millie Bobby Brown and Kylie Minogue presented the songstress' first award. Lipa said during her acceptance speech, "I want to thank every single female that has been on this stage before me and has given girls like me a place to be inspired by and [someone to] look up to and allow us to dream. Here's to more women on these stages, winning these awards and taking over the world."
