Last night we saw the return of the amazing AMA Awards! The American Music Awards (AMAs) is an annual music awards show, that was created by Dick Clark in 1973 for ABC when the network's contract to present the Grammy Awards expired. Which is unlike the Grammys, which are awarded on the basis of votes by members of the Recording Academy, something which I didn't know until doing some research. The AMAs are one via public/fan polls who vote through the AMA official website.
Here we have those who won awards last night:
You will be able to view them via this link http://dropshots.com/estherdjimo#.VlSkRVI2BcU.blogger
and also the official AMA Website http://www.theamas.com/nominees/2015-nominees/
How I found out about this was completely random, I was scrolling down my news feed on Facebook and as I follow Capital FM, they has posted something up about the AMA, talking about the outfits people wore there. Which led me to decide to make a post about it, as I made a previous post about the Mobos Awards here in the UK. So why not be cross cultural and talk about the American award.
Most the videos from this have been removed due to copyright issue on Youtube.
But here are links to some of the performances:

Booty icon singer Jennifer Lopez was the host of the awards and she did an incredible job of it. With her amazing outfits and wicked dancing skills, she was a sight to see. She brought sexy back to the AMA and completely captivated her audience throughout. With her charming personality and beauty. opening the show with a explosion of moves.

One thing that I love about this a award show is that they actually give awards to artists that aren't also from the states. the likes of One Direction won an award. And there is a lot more appreciation given to UK artists in contrast to the BET awards. It is also on a much bigger scale, more credibility, so it means that most the artists and guests there are really up there within the entertainment singing, whether they are a actor/ress, singer, rapper, producer etc. This award is given so much effort and time due it being one of the first awards for the new year that's about to star. It good to see talent being recognised. As well as One Direction getting an award, they also performed too.
