British stars had a particularly golden evening with the likes of Olivia Colman, Richard Madden and Christian Bale all landing awards.
The ceremony saw a return to looks of colour on the red carpet after last year's show of #MeToo solidarity in black.
Stars of film and television attended the award show at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles yesterday to watch as the Brits took over – winning big on stage and stealing the show on the red carpet.
On the red carpet some attendees were spotted wearing ribbons that read TIMESUPx2, to highlight the second year of the gender equality campaign.

Sandra Oh and Andy Samberg kicked off the ceremony by joking they were chosen because they were "the only people left in Hollywood who haven't got in trouble for saying something offensive".
The went on to make a series of amusing jokes – including one at Lady Gaga’s expense as they referenced her now famous ‘100 people’ speech about Bradley Coopers support.
Jim Carrey also provided the laughs in a skit when he got booted out of the "movie section" because he's now in TV show Kidding.

Lady Gaga, whose role in the movie was her first lead part after a successful music career, won best original song for Shallow.
She was presented the award by Taylor Swift, who skipped the red carpet earlier in the evening and Idris Elba, whose daughter proved herself to be star.
British actors Olivia Colman (The Favourite) and Christian Bale (Vice) took home the lead comedy movie acting awards.
Olivia, 44, giggled her way through her acceptance speech and paid tribute to her co-stars Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz, who she jokingly hailed her "bitches".

"Thank you my bitches Emma and Rachel! Every second working with you was such a joy. So much fun.
"I’m too excited! I went on a private jet and I ate constantly throughout the film – it was brilliant! I promise I will keep on enjoying it, because this is amazing."
She then addressed her husband Ed Sinclair and their three children as she smiled and said: "Ed and the kids, look! Yay!"
Christian left fans baffled by his accent - with most not even realising that the star is British.
While some admitted that they'd been expecting him to speak in his famous American Batman voice, others accused Christian of "putting on" a Cockney accent - and asked whether he was "method acting".
