Troye Sivan cleaned up at the 2024 ARIA Awards on Wednesday night as he won three of the biggest categories.
The Australian singer-songwriter, 29, took out Best Pop Release, Album of the Year and Best Solo Artist with his third studio album Something to Give Each Other.
Arriving at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney flashing a diamond watch worth $530,000, the hitmaker was riding a victory high as he took to the stage.
Having won Best Solo Artist and Song of the Year in 2023, this year, Troye beat out Down Under music icons Kylie Minogue, Kid Laroi, Amy Shark and Jessica Mauboy.
The hitmaker accepted his awards in person, telling a sweet story about his childhood as he gave his speech for Best Pop Release.
'My mum, who is here tonight, sent me a video of me singing Barbie Girl by Aqua when I was like three,' he said.

'I feel like it made me aware of the fact that since I was a little kid, I knew that I was gay and I also knew that I loved pop music.'
He added: 'I have had the craziest experience this year travelling the world performing an album that I really just wanted to bring people together through pop.
'Global pop was the whole idea... I'm so, so proud to be bringing it home.'
Something to Give Each Other was released in October last year, and was Troye's first album release in five years following his hit Bloom.
Troye was nominated for four awards at the ARIAs this year, winning all but one of the categories—Song of the Year, which he lost to G Flip.
The Australian singer-songwriter, 31, who uses they/them pronouns, gleefully took to the stage after taking out the award.

CYRIL, Dom Dolla, FISHER, Jessica Mauboy, Kylie Minogue, Lithe, Royel Otis, The Kid LAROI, and Troye Sivan were all nominated for Song of the Year.

'Thank you especially to my dad, my mum and my sister. They grew up with me with a drum kit from nine-years-old,' they said.
'The music was really bad at the start and then it slowly got better. So thank you for putting up with that,' they added.
'To the trans, non-binary and queer community, keep being your beautiful selves because that is the best form of resistance.'

'I can't believe we did it. I just want to give a huge shout out to [my team]. Congratulations to everyone involved,' Tones said in a video sent to the ARIAs.
