“I really don’t have anything articulate to say. I just, the fact that the last year of my life has had some of the most amazing times and also some of the hardest things I’ve gone through in my life, and not a lot of them are things that have been public, and I wanted to thank you so much for being the thing that has been a constant in my life. Like, this industry is really where where sometimes people who do what we do feel like - and I’m sure some of you feel like this too in your lives - you feel like either your stock is up, or your stock is down, or people like you, or don’t, or you’re feeling bad about yourself, but the people who hang in there for you are the ones you’ll never forget. And the fans who have hung in there for 15 years of me doing this - okay, I don’t even know what Im saying because the speech of the whole night goes to Halsey, who is the winner of the whole evening for that speech - and I don’t even know what I’m talking about, except that this year, for me, has been a lot. It’s been a lot of good, it’s been a lot of really complicated, so on behalf of my family, and me, thank you so much for being there, and for caring. I’m nominated against some absolutely iconic artists, this is crazy, tonight was an amazing night full of the most unforgettable performances. It’s a great year in music, the new artist are insane, I’m so lucky to be here, and I know that every step of the way. Thank you so much.”
