The best moments from the 麻豆社 Music Awards 2016

Well what a glorious calvacade of delights that was, from Matty 1975's wondrous shoes - "I think they're made of dog" - to Ricky Wilson in a mask pranking all the acts backstage, and of course tonnes and tonnes of great performances.

Here's a selection of the evening's best moments:

1. The backstage lightsabres

Behind the scenes, performers were encouraged to play with lightsabres (or flourescent lightbulbs at any rate) for the benefit of the 麻豆社 photographer. The results were quite something.

2. Rick Astley's selfie game needs work

He should take a tip from Zara Larsson...

3. How much of you loves John Legend?

And the feeling appears to be entirely mutual...

4. Izzy Bizu: purrfect

5. Ricky Wilson's alter-ego Sandy Branchline

Ricky Wilson of Kaiser Chiefs had the unenviable task of interviewing everyone backstage in character, as the European rock journo Sandy Branchline. He did manage to fool most of his targets, although Fearne Cotton claims she smelled a rat quite early on.

6. Craig David all over... everything

7. Emeli Sand茅 took to the stage mob handed

8. Adele texted her acceptance speeches

9. Robbie does a double take

10. Matty 1975 works magic with his hands

And taxidermy with his shoes...
