2009 American Music Awards: Men

Share




Per usual, Ne-Yo led the pack of men at the American Music Awards last night with a decidedly dapper look befitting a gentleman. The R&B singer sported his trademark hat and fitted suit, along with a pair of black-rimmed glasses and a "too cool for school" facial expression.

Perez Hilton didn't disappoint in an awkward white suit, white-blond pompadour and severe eyebrows. Ice cream, anyone? On the opposite end of the spectrum, Chris Daughtry showed up in standard alt-rock uniform of jeans, leather and man cleavage.

Representing for the Jackson family, along with sister Janet Jackson, Jermaine Jackson donned a black silk suit and as an homage to his late brother, Michael Jackson, he accessorized it with a single, sparkly white glove.

But to keep things from getting too mournful, Captain Morgan showed up with a pair of perky wenches on his arm, making sure that things stayed light.

So, who looked better at the 2009 American Music Awards, the men or the ladies?

Jennifer Lopez Takes A Tumble: 2009 American Music Awards

Share




It looked like an ambitious dance number when we first saw Jennifer Lopez rehearsing for her performance at the American Music Awards and last night, it proved to be too much for the pop star diva, who landed on her well-cushioned rear end after two male dancers lifted La Lopez up in an impressive high-jump.

The boxing-themed moves had J.Lo stepping into the ring with a gang of shirtless male dancers busting moves to Jennifer's new, snooze-inducing single, "Louboutins."

To her credit, Lopez quickly righted herself and continued with a quick dance solo without so much as missing a beat. But then again, that's what she gets for walking all over people.

Watch the video of Jennifer's performance at the American Music Awards here.

Adam Lambert Gets Hot & Heavy At 2009 American Music Awards

Share




Looking very much buttoned-up in a clean-cut silver suit, Adam Lambert quickly dispelled the notion that he had any intention of keeping his sexuality under wraps when he took to the stage of this year's American Music Awards. The singer performed the title track of his debut album, For Your Entertainment, in a sexually-charged demonstration on stage.

The American Idol runner-up grabbed a dancer by the ankles and dragged her on stage, walked male dancers on stage as if they were leashed dogs and even took a break from singing to make out with his keyboard player--supposedly a straight guy. And of course, all of this was punctuated with lots of pelvic thrusts.

However, Adam claims that his guy-on-guy kiss was "in the moment" and not something that he had planned to do on stage. Before press could react to the display, Lambert told the Rolling Stone backstage, "Female performers have been doing this for years--pushing the envelope about sexuality--and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out."

He added that criticism was tantamount to "a form of discrimination and a double standard." Especially if you're criticizing his singing.

Watch his performance here!

2009 American Music Awards: Ladies

Share




Selena Gomez was sparkly and short in her silver toga dress and gladiator sandals. Cute. Her buddy, Demi Lovato, also stepped out in a short, flirty dress looking simple and elegant at the 2009 American Music Awards at the Nokia Theater Los Angeles Live. Good job, ladies!

Toni Braxton kept it simple yet sexy in a simple black dress that showed off plenty of leg and gave a sneak peek of torso. Star of V, Morena Baccarin, also looked super-sexy in her patent-leather black heels and curve-hugging dress with a plunging neckline and all of it with a sweet pixie haircut and mysterious smile.

That is a whole lot of furry-looking turquoise Phoebe Price is wearing to the American Music Awards and I'm just wondering how many ostriches had to die for that coat of hers. I'm also not a fan of the black ankle boots Melody Thornton chose to pair with her clingy white dress.

Who do you guys think are the best and worst dressed of the ladies?

Kate Hudson's AMA Nipple Slip & A-Rod Kiss

Share




I'm not sure if Kate Hudson didn't think that because she has small breasts that she didn't need to use double-sided tape with her low-cut gown, but she did. When she leaned over to that microphone, she gave the world a view of her right nipple.

She also got a BIG kiss from Alex Rodriguez backstage at the American Music Awards. According to People, after the pair palled around with Fergie in the chilly outdoor backstage area at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, "A-Rod gave Kate a big squeeze to keep her warm," says a source, "and a sweet smooch."

Hudson was, "beaming, glowing actually," adds the source. And perhaps feeling a bit nippy.

Taylor Swift Wins Big! - 2009 American Music Awards Wrap Up

Share




However Taylor Swift was not there, but she's apparently incredibly popular. She beat out Michael Jackson to win Entertainer of the Year and took home a total of five American Music Awards.

The highlight of the night for me was Whitney Houston's performance of "I Didn't Know My Own Strength." While the rasp was present throughout the performance, the girl knows how to command a stage. She belted out the performance until she was almost out of breath. It was a powerful moment.



Michel Jackson ended up with four awards. Other multiple winners included hip-hop acts Jay-Z and the Black Eyed Peas, with two each.

The Black Eyed Peas were named favorite group in both the pop/rock and soul/R&B categories. Jay-Z won favorite male artist and favorite album in the rap/hip-hop categories.

Punk rock trio Green Day was named favorite alternative artist. Rascal Flatts won favorite country group for the fourth year in a row.

Janet Jackson: 2009 American Music Awards

Share




Since Janet Jackson knew she had the opening of the 2009 American Music Awards resting on her shoulders, it should come as no surprise that she donned a pair of metallic shoulder pads for the occasion.

Miss Jackson (cause I'm nasty) let her hair down and flaunted her girls in a low-cut light brown suede ensemble that kept the pop star relatively covered up, save for a hefty slice of cleavage.

When she wasn't gritting her teeth, she flashed her trademark smile after a performance well-done. Here's to Janet!

Val Kilmer's Hat: 2009 American Music Awards

Val Kilmer arrives at the 2009 American Music Awards wearing one helluva hat.  It appears to be made of leather, but the shape of it looks like a toilet seat cover. Kilmer paired said hat with a nifty scarf. Hey, to each his own.

Paula Abdul: 2009 American Music Awards

Share




Holy crap! Petite former American Idol judge, Paula Abdul, is wearing a dress that is almost as big as she is! The pop star selected a strapless, black dress with a mermaid-tail that trailed behind her as she made her way down the red carpet.

While she kept it simple with her medium-length, wavy curls, she showed off a hand completely covered in sparkly bandles and rings. Is that actually a fingerless glove of jewels? Interesting.
