If you watched the AMAs last night, then you caught an awesome night of live music entertainment and a lot of fun. The American Music Awards show first began first on the Red Carpet where all the top celebrities and musicians come prancing in as if it’s just another normal day, but we all know it’s not. Everyone (well, almost everyone) comes decked out in gorgeous dresses and handsome suits, although not everyone follows that trail. Justin Bieber, for example, showed up in ripped jeans and a tie-died Nirvana shirt while the young men from One Direction were dressed as if they just came out of a business meeting. All in all, it was a great evening full of music, dancing and laughter. There was a great mix of hip hop, pop music, rock, country music, Latin and more. The live performances were mainly out of this world, we got to see Jennifer Lopez, One Direction, Nick Jonas, Carrie Underwood and so many more play live. There were some real heavy hitters up for awards last night and we spell out all the American Music Awards winners below.
