Morgan Wallen was a big winner at this year’s Billboard Music Awards, picking up four trophies, winning in the categories of Top Male Artist, Top Country Artist, Top Country Male Artist and Top Collaboration (for his Post Malone collaboration “I Had Some Help”).
Wallen accepted the honors and thanked fans in his acceptance speech. Holding a BBMA trophy, he said, “What’s goin’ on, Billboard Music Awards. Morgan Wallen here, I just wanted to say thank you guys, for everyone who’s supported me along my journey. As always, and most importantly, thank you to my fans. You guys have just given me so much freedom to make music that I want to make, whether it’s a song that sounds similar to something I’ve put out in the past, or whether it’s something that’s completely different. You guys have always just at least given me the chance, and that’s all I can ask for. I really just want to say thank you guys for being that way with my music.”
Wallen added, “I hope I can come back next year and accept some more, but for now, I really appreciate it. God bless.”
Wallen won the most BBMAs in 2023, picking up 11 wins. This year, he earned 15 finalist entries in 13 categories, including five for his Post Malone collaboration “I Had Some Help.”
“I Had Some Help” spent six weeks atop the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 this year, while Wallen’s “Love Somebody” also topped the same chart.
In addition to adding to his collection of chart-topping songs this year, Wallen also wrapped his One Night at a Time World tour, an 87-concert trek which played an array of venues including 51 stadiums, as Wallen performed for over three million fans in 10 countries and three continents.
The Billboard Music Awards are produced by Dick Clark Productions, which is owned by Penske Media Corporation. PMC is also the parent company of Billboard.
