YEah I was right!
Roxette actually won 3 awards, I think I heard this when my alarmclock started and NRJ radio also started this morning.

I was was there too! :)
And you’re right PerAndren, I only saw them receiving an awards twice and I saw that there was one they didn’t win, but didn’t realize there was a fourth one. They must have gotten it backstage or something, I don’t really get this.
