Hip hop artist and producer Kanye West won international man of the year, while Kaiser Chiefs were awarded band of the year.
Razorlight frontman Johnny Borrell won not for music but for fashion, picking up most stylish man of the year.
Madonna was on hand to give designer David Collins the inspiration award, but managed to avoid a spat with Sir Elton, the night's host.
Sir Elton had accused Madonna of lip-synching at an awards ceremony in 2004.

The pair embraced onstage, but Sir Elton could not resist the last word, saying he had "written a grovelling apology and offered to join the Kabbalah".
