After a 3-year hiatus, the American Music Awards – one of music’s biggest nights – opted to take an unconventional approach to its return to screens by toasting its indelible legacy courtesy of a 50th Anniversary Special.
Aired Sunday night (October 6), the star-studded affair not only boasted special appearances by big stars and legendary acts like Jennifer Lopez, Reba McEntire, Carrie Underwood, Smokie Robinson, Samuel L. Jackson, Gloria Estefan, and more, but also gathered a megawatt roster of performers including Jennifer Hudson, Mariah Carey, Gladys Knight, Green Day, Nelly, Chaka Khan, and more.

Jennifer did great in spite of the weird music arrangement.
JHud fatter now from too much talk show sitting (unless it’s the pill to pre-keel babies with rumored-LGBT boyfriend, Common). Mimi is the new Britney, sadly. What a time to celebrate, eh?
I MISSED IT.
I WAS TOO BUSY RE-WATCHING POWER II:GHOST SERIES FINALE EP AGAIN (JAMMIN’ TO “BIG RICH TOWN” SONG FOR POSSIBLY THE FINAL TIME)!
