“We wouldn’t be here tonight if it wasn’t for the groundbreaking work of artists who cleared the path for guys like us,” said One Direction’s Harry Styles, on receiving their coveted Artist of the Year Award. “Magazine Covers and cheering audiences are great but respect for our music is really the greatest reward. Knowing you understand our place in music is worth every prepubescent scream reverberating in our ears, every waking moment of our lives. I only wish that guys like Bobby Sherman, Davy Jones and David Cassidy had gotten that kind of respect when they were performing. They were always neglected when it came time for the awards and that simply was, and remains a disgrace. I only hope that this award tonight, which we dedicate to them will let them know what they mean to us and every sixty something woman out there.”
