AMA Oh My

American Music Awards brings out everyone, in everything. But with a packed show, full of performances from every music genre it has to be one of the best awards shows there is.

Sure LA shut some streets, but all is fair in awards show land.

So, lets talk fashion, and performances-highlights and low, because that’s what this show is all about. Awards are just an extra perk.

Did Janet Jackson perform in Uggs? b/c she looked a little military elf-ish. Sorry Miss Janet.

Paula Abdul-It was the AMA's not the Emmys, what was with the ball gown?

Kelly Clarkson-the performance dress was a little old for her, but the singing was a good distraction.

Alicia and Jay-Z, NY loves you, if only we loved Alicia’s red carpet dress. Was it denim? butterflies? I only know it was mini. Her solo performance outfit was not much better. Chain link sweater anyone.

Fergie-So the Black Eyed Peas did well, the red-carpet dress was a bit much for me, and Fergie can pull off every type of style, this dress was just a lot. It might have been better short...least her performance outfit was.

The comeback Princess Rihanna-the fashion risk taker looked hot, and that dress could have gone very wrong, but Rihanna can do what she wants and make it hot, just look at the all white bondage style comeback outfit.

Country's got it going on; Carrie Underwood, cute, fun, and man can that girl sing. One of the best powerhouse voices in the industry right now.

Gaga....damn that Lady can sing!! so her clothing is rarely clothing, but with that voice, and creativity, who cares!

Mary J. Blige-she invented the comeback, and she is good at it. Although I'm not sure she ever really left, in order to come back, but hey.

J. Lo-were we supposed to be reminded of her fighting performance in 'Enough'?...or was she just craving a shoe deal?

Whitney-The comeback Queen of the night...She almost looked like the old Whitney, you know, before Bobby and the drugs...and her daughter seemed pretty pleased.

Nelly Furtado carried the fashion plate in her performance w. Timbaland

Quick fashion only comment...Leona Lewis-Sponsored by hefty trash bags? At least she knows her age, unlike Toni Braxton.

All in all-nothing awe inspiring, and nothing scream worthy-least the performances were hot.

Even if Adam Lambert was just weird...it was like odd musical theatre meets club meets david bowie meets creepy broadway revival....PS: When he was sitting in that chair, he touched that girl in way the wrong places! anyone else remember he wasn't the winner of Idol?

However the commercials did make me decide Nine would be this Jewish girls christmas day movie!

Now the biggest results ? of the night...
Gloriana beat Lady Gaga for breakthrough artist of the year? Um, AMA voters say what?! I guess those country fans know how to vote-just look at all the previous Idols gone country...But really people, lets talk.

And why has everyone gone Taylor Swift crazy? yeah, shes cute, and young, and fun, but she needs some live performance singing refinement to be artist of the year. Give the girl something to work towards people!!

Thats all she wrote-and you know, Nikki Knows.
