The Latin Grammy Awards were presented in Las Vegas on Thursday night, honoring the best in Latin music.

Camilo, Rubén Blades and the song "Patria y Vida," which has become the anthem of the opposition protests in Cuba, were among the night's big winners.

The show was hosted by singer-songwriter Carlos Rivera, singer and actress Ana Brenda Contreras and actress Roselyn Sánchez.

Performers included Bad Bunny, C. Tangana and Christina Aguilera. It was Aguilera's first Latin Grammy performance since 2000.
