Taylor Swift won her third consecutive artist of the year prize at the American Music Awards, but she missed the show for a good reason: She said she's busy re-recording her songs' masters after her catalog was sold.

She also won favorite music video and favorite pop/rock female artist.

The Weeknd lost artist of the year, but he still kicked off his all-star week as a big winner: Days before he's expected to land multiple Grammy nominations, the pop star dominated the 2020 American Music Awards with multiple wins.

The 30-year-old won favorite soul/R&B male artist, favorite soul/R&B album for "After Hours" and favorite soul/R&B song for "Heartless" on Sunday, two days before the 2021 Grammy nominations are announced.

"The last time I received this award it was given to me by the late, great Prince," he said after winning favorite soul/R&B album.

Breakthrough singer-rapper Doja Cat performed and won multiple honors, including new artist of the year and favorite soul/R&B female artist.

Grammy-winning country duo Dan + Shay beautifully performed "I Should Probably Go to Bed" and won collaboration of the year and best country song for "10,000 Hours," both shared with Bieber.

And Megan Thee Stallion — won favorite rap/hip-hop songs for "WAP" with Cardi B — performed "Body" from her recently released debut album "Good News.".

Jennifer Lopez and Maluma teamed up to perform their new songs "Pa' Ti" and "Lonely" from the film "Marry Me," which both of them star in, while Dua Lipa — who won favorite pop/rock song — levitated in the air during her performance of "Levitating.".

Other performers included BTS, Bad Bunny, Lewis Capaldi, Machine Gun Kelly, Lil Baby, Bell Biv DeVoe and Nelly, who performed hits from his diamond-certified debut album "Country Grammar," which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.

Becky G — who burst on the music scene in 2014 with the pop hit "Shower" but has recently had success singing in Spanish and launching hits on the Latin charts — won favorite Latin female artist.
