The Teen Choice Awards took place on Sunday night in California in the US

It was exciting night in Los Angeles on Sunday as some of the biggest names in music, film, TV and sport gathered for the Teen Choice Awards.

The awards are unique because teenagers in the US are allowed to vote for their winners via social media and on the official website.

So who won big this year?

One Direction boys still on top

To kick things off, it was a great night for the boys who used to be in One Direction.

Louis Tomlinson took home the prize for Male Artist, beating Bruno Mars, Drake, Ed Sheeran, Shawn Mendes and former bandmate Niall Horan.

Liam Payne came out on top in the Latin Song category, taking home the prize for his track Familiar, alongside J Balvin.

While Harry Styles won the category for favourite Summer Tour for Harry Styles - Live on Tour, beating music A-listers like Beyonce and Taylor Swift.

Despite being nominated in 3 categories, Niall went home empty-handed, as did Zayn, who'd been nominated for Summer Male Artist.

Don't feel too bad for Shaun Mendes though, as he scooped the prize for Pop Song, for his smash hit In My Blood, as well as the prize for favourite Summer Male Artist, beating Charlie Puth, Kane Brown, Liam Payne, Niall Horan and Zayn Malik, so he still had a very good night indeed!

Greatest Showman has the greatest night

One of the big movie winners of the night was the sing-along sensation released at the very end of last year, The Greatest Showman.

Together, Zac and Zendaya also won the prize for Collaboration for their song Rewrite the Stars.

The film also took home the awards for favourite Drama Movie and Movie Ship. Not bad going!
