The 24-year-old appeared to take a further swipe at music streaming service Spotify by thanking her fans for buying her album and supporting "art".

She said: "What you did by going out and investing in music and albums is you are saying that you believe in the same thing that I believe in: that music is valuable and music should be consumed in albums and albums should be consumed as art and appreciated."



Other winners on the night included Sam Smith, who won Best Pop/Rock Male Artist, and described the night as a "surreal and beautiful evening".

Talking of Iggy - she and Jennifer Lopez closed the show with their song Booty, and they sizzed on stage in their leotards.
