The American Music Awards, hosted by Jennifer Lopez, took place on Monday, May 26 at Fontainebleau Las Vegas. The show featured a mix of fan-voted awards, iconic performances, and memorable moments that got social media buzzing.
Jennifer Lopez stole the show with her high-intensity hosting gig, which included everything from dancer makeouts to multiple wardrobe changes. She opened the ceremony with a dance medley consisting of 23 songs condensed into six minutes, showcasing her impressive energy and charisma. The star then transitioned seamlessly to her host monologue in a stunning silver gown.
Other notable performances included SZA’s bold, sparkly dress that showcased pasties, Janet Jackson’s ICON award acceptance, and Gwen Stefani’s sexy Thanksgiving mascot-inspired medley. Benson Boone also made a memorable appearance with his sparkly purple Dolce & Gabbana suit.
However, not everything went as planned. A highly-prepared Nikki Glaser and Heidi Klum were denied the chance to rip off Benson Boone’s tuxedo during his performance of “Mystical Magical.” Additionally, Taylor Swift’s rumored re-recording announcement left fans disappointed once again.
Despite these lows, the show was filled with many highlights, including moments showcasing female performers’ dedication to their craft. From Gwen Stefani to Jennifer Lopez and Janet Jackson, these women are a testament to the power of hard work and longevity in the music industry.
Overall, the 2024 AMAs were an entertaining and memorable night that featured some of the biggest names in music.
