She showcased several daring looks, including a crop top paired with a massive booty-enhancing, cascading ruffled silver skirt, which she wore as she was suspended from the ceiling with wires.

"What the f--k is going, Glasgow?" she said as she was lowered to the stage.

The hip-hop star took home an award and performed a medley of songs at the annual (and uncensored) ceremony.

The event also featured performances from Grande, Charli XCXEd SheeranAlicia Keys and legendary Irish rock group U2.
