So amongst the countless awards our faves have got, there are clear, more prestigious and more relevant awards. In my opinion and in this thread these "relevant" awards are:
- Grammy Award
- MTV Video Music Award
- Billboard Award
- MTV Europe Music Award
- World Music Award
- BET Award
Here is a list of the female artists with the most combined total of these awards, starting with a minimum of 10.
Also note, although I will include BET Awards in the artists stats, I will not add them to the total out of fairness since BET Awards celebrate and award black artists significantly more than white, obviously. I also didn't really think American Music Awards were
that relevant or important although if mass people agree I can add them..

All awards are taken from the artists awards and nominations Wiki pages. Please don't drag me for my choice of awards if you personally don't agree
and please correct any mistakes or add any female artists I may have missed
to all the females who made it
World Music Award? That is the biggest flop award I have ever seen
