Rosalía scoops historic third best album award at Latin Grammys
Rosalía released her fourth album Lux last year to rave reviews
Spanish star Rosalía has made history as the first woman to win the best album award at the Latin Grammys three times, after being recognised for her project Lux.
The singer took home five trophies in total, including two for her track La Perla which was named song of the year and best pop song.
La Perla was also nominated for record of the year but missed out to Argentine singer Milo J's song Niño.
Rosalía released Lux last year to rave reviews and collecting her award at the ceremony in Las Vegas on Thursday, she said: "To all the people who told me I wasn't good enough, or that my music was too weird, I'm thankful I didn't listen."
The Barcelona-born artist then added: "Now I'm winning these prizes."
Rosalía, who opened the ceremony with a performance of some of her biggest songs, was honoured with the prize for best alternative music album.
She also picked up best shortform music video for her track Sauvignon Blanc.
The singer had previously won best album for El Mal Querer in 2019 and Motomami in 2022 - and her third Lux is also tipped to be a favourite when nominations are announced for the Grammys next week.
After a career spanning three decades, Daddy Yankee was recognised with a lifetime achievement award
