Justin Bieber achieved a remarkable feat at the recent American Music Awards by clinching the title of best male pop artist for the fifth time, setting a new record. Hailing from Stratford, Ontario, Bieber had previously won the award four times, initially securing the honor as the favorite pop/rock male artist in 2010.
Arriving at this year’s event in Las Vegas with four nominations, including artist of the year and album of the year for his work on “Swag,” Bieber added another accolade to his collection, bringing his total American Music Awards count to 19. This achievement ties him with the late Kenny Rogers for the second-most wins by a male artist, trailing behind the legendary Michael Jackson, who holds the top spot with 24 awards.
Recently, the talented singer made a triumphant return to the stage at Coachella, marking his first significant performance since canceling a tour in 2022 due to health issues related to Ramsay Hunt syndrome.
Among the other notable winners at the awards ceremony were BTS, who secured the artist of the year award, and Sabrina Carpenter, who emerged victorious in the album of the year category.
