The American Music Awards in Las Vegas was a night filled with unexpected moments and major wins. The event was hosted by Jennifer Lopez, who managed to steal the show with her energetic performances and a few controversial moves. Lopez danced to a mix of popular songs, but it was her kiss with both male and female dancers that had viewers talking. Some fans found it cringe-worthy, while others just shook their heads in disbelief.

        The awards ceremony saw several big names take home prizes, but many of the winners were not there to accept them in person. Billie Eilish, who won a whopping seven awards, was notably absent as she was touring in Europe. Eminem and Beyoncé also won big, but they too were missing from the stage. This left the spotlight firmly on Lopez and the other performers.

        Sir Rod Stewart was one of the night's standout moments. He was surprised on stage by his children, who presented him with the lifetime achievement award. Stewart seemed genuinely shocked and touched by the gesture. He spoke about his long journey in music, sharing that his only ambition was to sing. He then performed his classic hit "Forever Young, " reminding everyone of his enduring talent.

        Another memorable moment came from Shaboozey, who raised eyebrows with his reaction to Megan Moroney's statement about the Carter Family. Moroney claimed that the Carter Family "basically invented country music, " which seemed to amuse Shaboozey. His skeptical look and laugh went viral, adding a touch of humor to the night.

        Janet Jackson received the icon award, which she humbly accepted. She performed a medley of her hits, showcasing her enduring talent. Jackson reflected on her journey, noting that fame was never the goal; it was the love for music that drove her. This sentiment was echoed by Sir Rod Stewart, highlighting the common thread among these legendary artists.

        The night also featured a variety of performances. Benson Boone, known for his acrobatic stage presence, wore a green suit and performed his hit "Mystical Magical. " Gloria Estefan celebrated Latin music with a lively Conga, and Gwen Stefani brought back her noughties hits. Other winners included SZA, Post Malone, and Kendrick Lamar, among others. The full list of winners and performances can be found online.
