Drake Beats Adele’s Billboard Awards Record With 13 Wins

"Life is like toilet paper, either you're on a roll, or taking sh*t from assholes," Drake said during his acceptance speech.

Drake enjoyed a historic night at 2017’s Billboard Music Awards as he surged to a massive 13 wins, surpassing Adele’s record of 12 BBMA wins in one night.

"Life is like toilet paper, either you're on a roll or taking sh*t from assholes," Drake said during his acceptance speech.

The Canadian superstar then used his opportunity on stage to flirt a little with host Vanessa Hudgens. "It's crazy that we're all here on earth for a limited amount of time, and we gotta show love while we're here," he said on stage midway through the broadcast, before getting to the heart of the matter:"Vanessa Hudgens, you look incredible tonight," to which Nicki Minaj, sitting in the crowd, was caught on camera shouting, "WHAT ABOUT ME?" Drake later said that he loved her.

People try to tear Drake down a lot, but you can't help but love him for trying to spread positivity and energy.

While the 13 wins sees Drake surge up Billboard’s all-time winners list, he still has some work ahead of him if he’s to catch Taylor Swift, who has won 21 in total.
