    Beyonce was defiently the queen of the night with her sasha fierce ponytail!! :P



  2. 102

    It was largely a waste of time. The majority of performances were garbage. Best thing on there was Sarah McLachlan and Pink's duet.



  3. 103

    no. i didn't and i doubt i missed much.



  4. 104

    The American Music Awards was alright. Christina's performance was okay, Ne-yo did a lovely job I enjoyed it. Mariah Carey sounded nice, Leona Lewis sounded nice, Pink looked beautiful, Rihanna sounded Terrible, I used to be a fan of hers but she's starting to fade away. Kanye I loved, Alicia Keys performance with Queen Latifah and the opera lady was nice. Jonas Brothas is so overrated I don't care too much about them , Taylor Swift I wanted to give her a tissue- poor thing. Miley Cyrus makes me laugh but I like her song. Beyonce I loved it. Jimmy Kimmel was corny I don't find him to be that funny. Overrall it was alright it wasn't nothing I can brag about the next day. The sound was messed up though.



  5. 105

    Taylor Swifts performance was AMAZING! I'm SO glad she won. She deserves it. :].



  6. 106

    Mariah lipped 90% of the song.



  7. 107

    Enrique Iglesias….Ugh. What happened to him. Looked like he was 14 years old and stoned. Terrible hair. No wonder Kanye ignored him when he picked up his prize from him.

    Christina's Performance was off and Mariah was BORING……………



  8. 108

    Pink was great, and why doesn't anyone point out that she always sounds great and she is always LIVE!! All of her performance is live!



  9. 109

    No. American music is in a sad state. Most pop/soul/rap is just garbage these days, which is why you see old rock groups like the Stones, Eagles, Van Halen, and etc. selling out big concert arenas, because even in their 60's, their music is way superior to anything today.



  10. 110

    Mariah rocked! 100% live, i hope you don't doubt it this time! She was cool, simple and powerful

    Chritina was good. Correct, not impressive, but it was good.

    I haven't seen the rest of the performances, but I bet they were great.



  11. 111

    Sarah McLachlan was great, she has an amazing voice. And she's even better in concert, pure class.



  12. 112

    I watched it. Did anyone else think that Taylor Swift was about to cry? And possibly– well probably, lip syncing? And Christina seemed off, for sure. Her voice sounded very… manly? Mmm, I don't really know.
    The Jonas Brothers were awesome, Demi looked fabulous, Slutty Cyrus is at it again, what was with the stripper moves?? She's 16! What will she do next??



  13. 113

    TAYLOR SWIFT DID AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  14. 114

    Re: itsk4yl4duh – Awesome comment!! Summed up the whole show. I didn't get to watch, so thanks!!

  15. Ty20 says – reply to this


    115

    I enjoyed all of the performances except for Christina Aguilera and Leona Lewis(who i usually love, she just seemed so awkward and nervous). Mariah Carey did absolutely amazing and sang live…YAY! Beyonce..wow, she was definitely great. Miley, and Perez i know u hate her, but i thought she did amazing. She always brings so much fresh energy to the stage, its just great. Taylor Swift was pretty good too. Natasha Bedingfield suprised me with how great she was. And Alicia Keys performance with Queen Latifah, so unexpected, but some great, i loved it. But favorite of the night was Pink, hands down. She is just so amazing to listen to. Her voice is so powerful and full of emotion. I loved her.



  16. 116

    Kanye West is RIDICULOUS! He is such a white racist!!! The Beatles, Elvis…really??? Can't even compare..and Kanye hasn't invented anything new like those guys did….what the hell is he talking about? He isn't humble at all…he's ego is out of control!! Giving away your award? Idiot…why give him one in the 1st place? So he won't throw a fit! Then he throws in a few people from the audience about how they are all going to take over the music world and become the next Hendrix or Elvis..give me a break….I bet those follks cringed when he did that!! IDIOT! And it sucks because I like some of his music…but won't listen to him anymore…that's not how you take over the world…get a clue from Prince on how to do that!



  17. 117

    NKOTB was awesome as usual!!! PCD…um Nicole's voice cracked hardcore during midsong…wtf? It was horrendous…

  18. whack says – reply to this


    118

    Kanyes speech- EPIC ;-) beyonce screwed up a little but…girl can move. The general sound of the venue was not up to par. Miley needs to stop performing at these awards shows. It's embarrassing. Cold Play did very well. Taylor Swift did well… making Joe feel like a creep…and then winning an award after..insult to injury. Loved it. Neyo did well. Chris Brown did well. Pink (although I always hate saying this) did well. Queen Latifa brought it. Annie was incredible and very deserving of her award. Overall, it wasn't that terrible of a night…performance wise.



  19. 119

    i thought all of the performances seemed very rushed….and coldplay sounded like shit…..

    other than that…me likey



  20. 120

    who watches this shit?



  21. 121

    hell to the no!



  22. 122

    the jonas brothers sucked as usual…i like how they try and sing harmony and it sounds like someone put a clothes pin over their noses….hahaha….made me laugh…..

    i liked beyonce….tho i wanted her to sing If I were a Boy….

    overall….i was entertained



  23. 123

    Re: TrickSlut – i agree with most everything you said…except the cyrus thing….he looks a hell of a lot better than he did in his achy breaky heart days….but he looks just like my dad (you connect the dots).

    oh…and i thought alicia was pretty damn good….and im sooo not a fan of hers….anyway



  24. 124

    I forgot it was on.



  25. 125

    They were good overall– most of the right people won– except Carrie Underwood should have won Female Country artist since Taylor sucks. But Carrie won Best Country Album so that was cool.

    Best performances– Pink, Beyonce, Calicia Keys, Annie Lennox, Leona Lewis, natasha.

    Worst performances– Jonas Brothers, Taylor swift, New Kids



  26. 126

    Taylor Swift sucked and lip synced too! lol What a loser! No country artists ever have to lip sync. She still sucked anyway. And that childish antic at the end directed at the jonas brothers made me want to hurl. She just wants attention and is using her so-called break up for pity and album sales. I think the jonas brother was wise to dump her fake ass. She cannot sing to save her life.



  27. 127

    Taylor was lip syncing and she still sucked anyway.

  28. Eleni says – reply to this


    128

    Pink's performance gave me chills. She and Sarah McLaughlan were amazing too.
    BOOOO on Slutty Cyrus.



  29. 129

    enjoyed most of it but beyonce had to be the hottest. did you see that dancing? like wow. very good performance.



  30. 130

    Luved it!! I luved Beyonce, Mariah, and NKOTB!!



  31. 131

    Why was Miley there - she was not nominated for anything.
    Oh wait..Disney owns ABC..now I know why.



  32. 132

    Is it just me or did ALL of the musicians sound pretty bad? I think something must have been wrong with their mics.



  33. 133

    scott weiland looked/sounded like he was on something when he was announcing pink for her performance.



  34. 134

    Beyonce was amazing!!!!



  35. 135

    Beyonce,,Jonas Brothers,Miley,Kayne,& Coldplay were amazing.Taylor looked like a pathetic loser when she fale cried so she could get atention & have everyone feel sorry for her.She totally lip synched.



  36. 136

    The show sucked like most award shows did this year. The sound was not right which screwed up alot of the performances.



  37. 137

    missed it this year looks like i didnt miss much



  38. 138

    I only watched a little towards the end. The duet with Alicia Keys and Queen Latifah was the fiercest..and when Kathleen Battle came in, well that made it a night for the record books!



  39. 139

    Loved it..All in all everyones performances was really good…except Christina's… but to say my two favorite was Kanye and the New Kids on The Block!!!



  40. 140

    NKOTB did not dissapoint! They still have talent (Jordan- work on the voice), they're all together and they are lookin' good. I met them the night before at a concert in WA and they were very gracious and nice. I wish Lady Gaga performed at the AMA's though!



  41. 141

    Loved Kanyes and P!nks preformance!



  42. 142

    chris brown is amazing first and foremost. i dont know how coldplay got beat out everytime esp by daughtry??? wtf? and it was annoying how its always about miley cyrus. i mean i like her but come on we know you're 16 congratulations you can drive.



  43. 143

    Re: novanta – HAHAHA!!!!!!!!

    thats right!!!!!

    she makes everyone look like amatures on the stage!!!!!

    "when i crack that whip everybody's gonna trip just like a circus!!!!"



  44. 144

    They were actually not to bad this year.



  45. 145

    Missed the first hour, but caught the rest. I liked the creative treatments of the songs, except for Rihanna—-what was with the eye patch??? Loved love LOVED Annie Lennox—now that was a performance—-loved JT's intro of her, too. Sarah and P!nk blew me away, and "Superwoman" left me applauding in my living room!! And was that supposed to be a big surprise that JoBros won breakout?? I mean, c'mon……Liked Beyonce's perfomance, but hated what she was wearing.
    Perez, sweety, will you be posting other performances??



  46. 146

    its lacked a lot of Britney



  47. 147

    hahahaha Perez wtf is wrong with Beyonce, why th efuck did she pul lher ponytail up like that and stand there, other than that she was FIERCE, hahah but the pony tail thing killed it hahahahhaahhaha



  48. 148

    No, i watched True Blood and Dexter. I'm so over award shows



  49. 149

    Christina, Beyonce, P!nk, and Miley were all pretty good!



  50. 150

    It was good for the most part. Taylor Swift's performance was weriod and it seemed as if she was going to cry. I like the Jonas Brother's but, the performance was, what can I say, akward, they could have picked a better song. Miley Cyrus was by far the best out of Swift and Jo Brothers. I loved the performance "Angel" sung by Sarah and Pink , that was the best performance of the night.



  51. 151

    Re: MelodicAngel – White Horse was not written about Joe Jonas, it was written before they were together. Theres a song on the album called "Forever and Always" thats about him.
    She usually performs her Itunes best seller songs and that was her number one, and it will probably be the next single for that reason. In no way related to Joe.



  52. 152

    Ya Miley, rocked the house!



  53. 153

    just let me say that at my age u see alot of music come and go, and in my opinion all these tennie boppers will be has beens in a couple of years. UNLIKE the music of my age that is still going strong. I didnt even know half thoses cute but untelented kids, LOL LOL its like u have to be under 25 to lknow whos who.



  54. 154

    Re: Muskratlove – I so agree with u I said the same thing



  55. 155

    I'm too old to be a Miley fan, but I thought she did really well! Pink was awesome! Taylor Swift was ok, obviously very emotional during her song! Beyonce…well, I thought she was having a seizure when I got back to the show. I thought the presenters were all pretty lame and boring!!



  56. 156

    joe jonas got his hair cut and teeth whitened..maybe he wanted to look good for taylor swift. the jobros performance was okay..not amazing at all..i dont think joe realizes that they are a disney band.he thinks there hard core rock stars.. taylor swifts performance was cute and you could tell it was emotional for her..i like that she didnt have any makeup on or anything..i would bet that that performance was dedicated to joe jonas. ..oh well i thought the amas were really good this year



  57. 157

    Nope, didn't watch. Didn't care.



  58. 158

    Re: MelodicAngel – That's Joe Jonas, stupid. :) And Taylor has been getting on my nerves lately.



  59. 159

    Re: PinkyGirl – AMEN!



  60. 160

    Re: PinkyGirl – Okay are you one of p-nasty's bff's? It's OKAY to admit that the chick did her thing on stage. WTF were you looking at? Seriously



  61. 161

    I thought Milli Vanilli were amazing. It's so nice to see all that authenticity out there.



  62. 162

    very impressed w/ alicia keys, pink was awesome.
    new kids were suprsingly very good. love there last song!

  63. r_ast says – reply to this


    163

    P!nk was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!



  64. 164

    taylor didn't lipsync, i compared the original track to the performance, and you can slightly hear her breathing on the mic before she sang her lyrics



  65. 165

    Re: CarrieRox – I agree 100% Carrie should have won. Taylor's songs are good.. but she needs to have a person who can actually sing record them!



  66. 166

    1. ANNIE LENNOX!!!
    2. Sarah and Pink!



  67. 167

    NO ONE SANG THE DAMN SONG I WANTED THEM TO SING
    i wanted taylor to sing lovestory but whatever.
    kanye pisses me off and is ruining himself. he has talent
    but his cockiness makes it hard to want to support him
    idk about the jo bros. i think theyre egotistical assholes deep down
    YAYYY JIMMY KIMMEL
    Ne-yo's back up singers sounded good. barely heard him.
    wtf. why was PCD even there?
    Mariah and nick are annoying as hell
    Miley looks like an idiot on stage. and she looks chubby. i was surprised
    but her idiotic movements remind me of ashlee simpson
    christina has already peaker. its all downhill from here =l
    i LOVE coldplay.. but why did they sound so bad?!?!
    beyonce didnt sing if i were a boy so i was mad.
    plus she danced more than she sang. always annoying
    where was britney?!
    the fray is my favorite and has been for years and years. best performance of the night!!!!!!!!!!!!
    natasha is always flawless
    annie lenox is love
    leona lewis is also, always flawless. but she looked waaay skinnnyy
    sarah mc was cool
    NKB made me wince. i thought someone was gonna break an ankle or have a heart attack. idk. im all for comebacks but theyre not very fresh
    rihannas a tad bit overrated…
    idk. i wasnt terribly impressed.



  68. 168

    NKOTB FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  69. 169

    Where was Selena Gomez ?



  70. 170

    LOVED THEM!!!!
    Angry though… that Chris Brown was the artist of the year…
    Sarah Mclachlan was awesome
    Alicia Keys rocked…
    STEVEN TYLER w00t!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    RIHANNA!!!!!! I am over hating her, I'm gonna embrace her from now on.



  71. 171

    Reba should have totally won……Where the hell is my Britney Spears?!



  72. 172

    Scott Weiland WAS WASTED!!!!!!!!!!!! Could barely speak and his eyes were glittering with a drug glaze!



  73. 173

    Did anyone see how amazing Taylor Swift's performance was? That stupid Jonas boy was in the audience and u could tell she was so sad while singing that song…it seemed so from the heart!!! I got all teary eyed! :( lol



  74. 174

    kanye is so annoying and needs jowl lipo big time



  75. 175

    it was pretty good… LOVEEED the Jonas Brothers Especially Nick in his GREEN tie :D D



  76. 176

    Leona kicked Mariah's ass! Whatever happened to Mariah's beautiful voice? ALicia kicked butt, and so did Sarah and Pink. Fray was awesome, and I can't believe I'm admitting this, but Miley performance was excellent.



  77. 177

    No actually i believe ALL the mic's were off last night. I wish they would just HIRE ME to do the sound because even myself who knows NOTHING about sound could have figured out that the MIC'S WERE SOOO OFFF! ITS A MUSIC SHOW GET IT TOGETHER ABC!



  78. 178

    Re: kathie! – Do not mess with the king, bitch! Enrique Iglesias is the king of the world!



  79. 179

    Pink-GREAT,
    NEO- i was surprised, his set was really good, the choegraphy was awsome.
    Leona- Suckt. borrrrring.
    Beyonce- I usually am bored with her, but girl workt it.
    Miley- dang, she did really good!..
    The Jonas brothers-are weird. haha.
    Newkids- wtf. i was embarrassed watching that!
    Jimmy Kimmel- was a great choice for host!



  80. 180

    Jonas Brothers CAN'T SING!!! Never could they suck.

    Best part was when Billy Ray came out to introduce his daughter … and said that she the top box office movie this weekend … HELLOOOOO it only debuted @ 3!!! Boy needs to get his info straight before he makes a stupid statement like that!



  81. 181

    good show! Lots of impressive performances. the sound was "off" most of the night, either there was something wrong in the theatre or with the broadcast, but there were definitely times when you could hear the singers over the background bands, etc.

    NKOTB sounded like shit, Mariah really sang, PINK kicked ass twice!, Miley was super slutty, Leona Lewis looked old, Jonas Brothers stunk up the whole place, Rihanna was boring but hot, Coldplay was gimmicky with the butterflies and Chris Brown walked away with it ALL



  82. 182

    I can't believe i haven't seen any comments about taylor swift lip synching…i played my itunes song at the same time she was singing and it was EXACTLY the same…she did an absolute awful job all around i thought and i love her normally. don't agree to perform if your going to do that girl



  83. 183

    The winners were extremely predictable, however, I'm really glad that both Taylor and The Jonas Brothers won! They all work so hard and they deserve it. I thought it was pretty funny when Taylor yelled the line in her song about finding someone some day that will actually treat her well. Soo directed at Joe!



  84. 184

    taylor swift was soooo sad singing her song…….awww
    and miley is disgusting.
    and i dont think the jonas or demi thought jimmy's jokes were toooo funnny



  85. 185

    Re: nickjsbby – YES she wwasss about to cry.



  86. 186

    AMA's were hot tonight! DIVAS LIVES lol Christina showed why people liekd her int he frist place with ehr natural talent, focusing on that voice. Quite humble for her to do the old version of "Genie". Pink was like Janis Joplin with glam all over her body. I'm so glad Mariah chose SPANX, and a puch-up bra, and 30 year old woman's gown to perform. Mimi looked impatinet int he beginning, but did awesome later in the song. Miley had one of the best productions of the night! Her peorformance was her best ever! With her birthday happenign that night, her bf, "Bolt" high on the box - office, "Breakout" re-release, and that stellar Disney bday, it was quite easy for her to have the drive and happiness to deliver an amazing performance. Alot of painful feelings brought Taylor Swift to perform a heart breaking sad tearful and depressive version of "White Horse". Watching that performance makes me want to teepee Joe Jonas's house. Speaking of Joe Bros. Pretty good performance but everytime I look at Joe I think: heartbreaker, player, typical rockstar player. But Jo Bros delivered a Duran Duran lazor like performance. You can tell they want to mature more ont he next album. And hearing the puberty coming out of Nick's voice I can see why. BEyonce had such a fierce beginning with that silouhette shadow walk. FIERCE SASHA FIERCE! The AMA's was so good any awards show scheduled after this one has alot of pressure. Because this one was not only fierce. It was SASHA FIERCE!



  87. 187

    Yes and other than Pink's performance and the amazing Annie Lennox, the show sucked ass!! I thought I was watching the damn MTV Video Music or Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards, with all the teeny bopper crap!!! Call me bitter because once again Pink was not recognized for her amazing talent, but the AMAs was pretty much a waste of time!



  88. 188

    I actually liked miley cyrus's performance
    and david archuleta was adorable (L)



  89. 189

    oh and p.s
    i thought taylor swift was about to run into the audience and rip off joe jonas' head



  90. 190

    The best performance of the night was David Cook in the pre-show.



  91. 191

    i loved beyonce and coldplay!



  92. 192

    Re: tayylor
    yeah..i was waiting to see his reaction to her but i didnt see one.
    n tht guy who introduced pink really needed to sober up! was classic :)



  93. 193

    Jimmy Kimmel ROCKS!!! I love how he doesn't hold back. I especially enjoyed his cracks on the Jonas brothers. Taylor Swift was incredible.



  94. 194

    I am so glad that someone else noticed that Taylor Swift was cutting eyes and pointing at Joe Jonas like the whole time. It even looked like one time she was about to loose it and just go to crying all over that stage. I just wish I could have seen Joe Jonas face while she was singing I wonder if he was looking at her or what. But Miley was really bad that song is stupid but thats all I have to say.



  95. 195

    awful…. the only good things about it were BeyoncĂ© and Pink's performances. The wrong people won the awards (Rihanna beating Alicia Keys, what the hell?)

    it was just terrible. last year was way better. and no offense, but it's called the AMERICAN music awards, why was Leona Lewis performing? the performance wasn't even that good.



  96. 196

    It was Trashy.



  97. 197

    Re: PinkyGirl – umm… beyonce was dancing the whole time and she sang most of the song. don't u think she'd be a little out of breath dancing that much AND singing? c'mon now.



  98. 198

    Snooze-fest!! I happened to catch Annie Lenox….which was the highlight of the show. The PCD's need to give it up….yak!



  99. 199

    I thought they were really good.

    I love Jim Kim, BUT he's not that funny and wasn't that great of a host :/



  100. 200

    My thoughts - Annie Lennox is amazing…
    Beyonce has huge thighs….
    Pink is an amazing singer.. LOVE HER..
    Jonas Brothers are totally contrived.. I dont get it.
    The show overall was pretty good.
