Paula Abdul opened the show, but her mic was off. A little chuckles here and there, but she continued with a smile on her face.
The big highlights included GaGa's odd, but nice performance, Adam Lamberts shocking debut, and Jennifer Lopez's slip on stage. She recovered well and continued to perform her new single Louboutins.
Kate Hudson got a near-slip on national TV. She did try to cover herself as much as possible with hand gestures, and many people got a chuckle out of it.
Janet Jackson opened the show with an 8 minute tribute to Michael Jackson, who in fact was one of the big winners.
Rihanna scored a new tattoo that read "Rated R" after her upcoming album. Her performance was mesmerizing and she looked really well put together and living her life as she used to.
Adam Lambert, last AI season's runner up, debuted with a performance that was quite a trip. He promoted sex by grabbing his crotch, making out with a male dancer, flipping his finger to the camera, and having his dancers on a leash. It was all in good as he slipped on stage. You're not alone JLO.
Both Michael Jackson and Taylor Swift took in most of the awards and went face to face for the Artist of the Year Award. Swift shockingly won that category, her reaction on screen shown in the image. Michael Jackson's wins were accepted by his brother Jermaine Jackson.
Whitney Houston received the Internation Artist Award after performing “I Didn't Know My Own Strength". Samuel L. Jackson gave her the award and she was so appreciative towards everyone.
Other winners included Beyoncé , Green Day, Rascal Flatts, and Gloriana. It was a nice show, for performances, but as for awards, it was a disaster. There is no good awards show out there. They've all been ruined by over-hiring artists to perform and limiting the number of awards given out. Just look at the MTV Awards. It should be called The American Music Performances, rather than Awards.
