Bemi Orojuogun’s fellow bus enthusiasts didn’t let her down tonight, as she receives the most votes for Video of the Year.

Since then, she has racked up around 50 million views.

"TikTok, I cannot tell you how much I love you for allowing someone like me to shine on your platform," Bus Aunty says as she accepts the award.

"I also want to thank TfL," she says to much laughter.

"She's a good old paperweight!" Nikki Lilly tells me as she holds her award.

"I have felt like an underdog in life and TikTok has given me such a special community."

She tells me she's putting the award on her shelf, to look upon during the harder days.

My bag asks her which creator she'd choose to swap accounts with for 24 hours.

She says Bus Aunty without a doubt.

"She's after my own heart. I would choose her to represent England."

"It was one of the first awards announced so I can have a beer now!" a shaky Phil triumphantly tells me on the red carpet, following his win in the travel category.

"To be awarded for something I love doing feels like I've cheated life."

He tells me the only people he needs to thank are those who watch his videos.

Nikki Lilly is a megastar, with just under 10m followers on TikTok alone. Her beauty and makeup videos regularly attract millions of viewers.

Now 21, Nikki is a veteran content creator, having already gained a massive online following, interviewed the then-prime minister Theresa May and won Junior Bake Off before the age of 16.

After being diagnosed with an arteriovenous malformation, a rare life-threatening medical condition at age six, she has used her platform to raise awareness and inspire others.

"As someone with a facial condition, I've never felt fully embraced in this space," she says while accepting her award.

She adds that she has found "so much safety" in the TikTok beauty world.

You've watched their GRWMs, seen their lip liner reviews, but who is the creator that TikTok says is the best at "inspiring audiences through unique and creative fashion and/or beauty content"?

The nominees are:

• Nikki Lilly
• Sammi Jefcoate
• Nucchi
• Gary Thompson
• Matty Weldon
• Yasmin Devonport

Kyra Mae Turner, winner of last year’s Creator of the Year award, tells me the route to her success was not caring about what anyone else thinks.

She says she believed in her work and presented the most “authentic version” of herself.

I've nabbed Nabiha's bag, which asks her who her favourite Tiktoker is at the moment.

To that she responds, a lifestyle content creator with over two million followers: Kacie Jay.
