Rapper Kendrick Lamar has taken six prizes at the MTV Video Music Awards in Los Angeles.

He won best video of the year for Humble, as well as best hip-hop artist, after opening the awards ceremony with a live performance.

Ed Sheeran – who won artist of the year – was live on stage with rapper Lil Uzi Vert, but Taylor Swift was a no-show.

Within an hour, nearly 500,000 people had watched the video on YouTube.
