The AMA Show

Nov 19 | by Natasha

One of my fave performances of the night was of course Ms. Keys:

Maybe it was the whole reggae set that did it but the ish was hot. Chick brought out peeps like Beenie Man and other folks. Hotness.

There's the video in case you missed it:

Mel B. hit up the press room looking fabulous as usual. Beyonce and Ursh kicked it back there too:

And congrats to her for copping the AMA International Award. Jimmy Kimmel acted the fool with the Solja Boy dance and decided to bring up Jordin Sparks and country chick Kelli Pickler to do it too:

Boo.

Queen Latifah performed. Will.I.Am, Fergie, and Nicole S. opened the show:

She definitely should have worn that on the red carpet. Rih Rih and Ne-Yo performed "Hate That I Love You":

She copped the "Favorite Female Artist" Award for Soul/Rhythm and Blues. She wore a Zac Posen dress but the performance was blah though. MJB performed looking hot in all black:

Work it out then Mrs. Blige.

Lenny performed.

Alicia hit up the press room too. Chris Brown had my other fave performance of the night for "Kiss Kiss":

Dude really performed upside down on the ceiling. Hot.

Akon won the Favorite Male Artist award for Soul/Rhythm and Blues.

Bone came out of hiding and won for Favorite hip Hop Duo, Group, or Band for Rap/Hip Hop. T.I. won for Favorite Male Artist and Favorite Album for the same category.

Blair Underwood presented. Is anybody else watching Dirty Sexy Money? So one of the best shows on tv right now. Loves it. Beyonce did an interesting performance. Country style "Irreplaceable" with Sugarland:

Those shoes...

John Jackson made my night and presented.

Snoop hit up the press room...probably to promo his new reality show.

And Nicole did a cute wardrobe change. That's a wrap.

I love Beyonce myself, but I

I love Beyonce myself, but I do feel she is a bit overexposed. Chris Brown's performance was great so whoever said it wasn't, stop the hate. And... he can sing. Someone's been living under a rock! Rihanna deserved that award as much as anyone else. Face it people, she CAN sing and she's selling the hell out of her cd's. More than B did with B-day. Please stop hating on Rih Rih.

[quote comment="13464"]Firts

[quote comment="13464"]Firts of all to QC, we know that this is not a literary site, but I think I speak for most when I say that we should try to be correct at all times. That's jut like people saying that just because a black person talks proper they sound white, no they just sound educated- duh. Anyways... Beyonce deserved the award that she won, despite what her haters might think. Normally, I love what she wears, but I'm alomost sick of the fan tail dresses. Rhianna looked good, but we all know that in person she can't sing and lacks stage presence, so hopefully she was looking at B taking notes. Alicia Keys rocked it as usual and her shape is banging. Mary lokked good, sounded good, and is just fyne. Chris Brown just might be the new Micahel Jackson. I'm talking about the normal Michael of the 70's and 80's.- lol[/quote] You're right about Chris Brown. But he may just turn into 90's Michael if he continues to dress like he's 12 and bringing little boys with him to parties.l Does he have a girlfriend?

The show was alright overall.

The show was alright overall. But Beyonce was definitely the Queen of the Night. She killed it in that gold dress. And her stage outfit was hot too. Loved the shoes. Congrats to her on being honored by Usher for being the first female to win the International Artist Award! That's a huge honor. I think it's safe to say she can retire now. I mean she's already been honored TWICE and she ain't even 30 yet. There's nothing left for her to do. She's a legend now so Bee you can retire and enjoy it. Alicia killed it too with her performance. I can't wait for her and Bee to collaborate and show these other chicks how it's suppose to be done. Love her and Bee. Rihanna can't sing and she looked a mess so Next! Ashanti looked cute but she is very irrelevant. Overall the show was kinda boring with exception of Alicia and Beyonce moments.

How is Chris Brown true

How is Chris Brown true talent when he lip-synced that whole performance. GTFOH Beyonce received something like a Lifetime Achievement Award last night something Chris Brown will never receive. Just like Ciara he can dance but that's about it. TRUE talent equals Beyonce and Alicia. Alicia killed it in her performance and Beyonce deserved the honor she received. They go to show that you have to have REAL talent in order to make it.

To Ms. Shell D. It doesn't

To Ms. Shell D. It doesn't matter HOW she spelled Shaba Ranks. We all KNEW who she was talking about. This is SO NOT the English Comp. website to be checking ppl. I mean, dayum! *"shaking the head" Emoticon* Okay...so over that...now on to the real comment....Does anyone beside me remember that Shabba wasn't supposed to be back in the States b/c of some warrants or did he "pay his debt to societ"? Just curious

-Alicia's performance was

-Alicia's performance was hot, she did a great job. -Bey looked beautiful as usual. When I realized that Sugarland (i think that's the name of the group) was about to perform Irreplaceable...it was all over for me!! It's official, Bey can't be touched!! -Chris Brown definitely, hands down had the best performance of the night. I used to not care for him too much but I'm really beginning to like this boy!!

And, I love Chris Brown but most of the time his style choices are kind of tacky!! Why was Ashanti even there? Why is she still at award shows?? Like seriously, it's been forever since she released a CD!! WHO INVITED HER?!

@ Nee He had to lip sync

@ Nee He had to lip sync because of all that dancing. He really would've sounded a hot mess out of breath trying to sing while doing all those dance moves. The boy has talent & he's a great performer. How you going to knock that boy's talent? You can't even try to compare him to Alicia & Beyonce that's a whole another level. It took time for Beyonce to get to her level now, she sure didn't come out this way. It took hard work & dedication. He's killing it right now in his category, none of the young males is touching him right now.

Please note the peeps Alicia

Please note the peeps Alicia Keys brought on during her performance are Beenie Man, Junior Reid and Chaka Demus and Pliers (not Shabba Ranks and Maxi Priest)

How are you hating just

How are you hating just because you don't think Beyonce is all like? Gosh, can we have our opinion? Anyway, Alicia and Chris were the highlights for me. Mary did good too. Overall, the show was boring as hell.

~~~~~~``Man ol' man Alicia

~~~~~~``Man ol' man Alicia Keys killed it hands down... My absolute favorite performance of the night...my dad's from guyana so like rih said in her acceptance speech i too can appreciate that!!! Awww man i just loved it...she got everybody hype. Some the country folk didn't know what was going on. lolz Umm next up on my list has to be Chris Brown...what an amazing young man. Ladies and gents yes he was lip syncing but so did MJ half the time and no one's topped him yet. Like some one said he's an entertainer and a damn good one. Go head boy...you kill it everytime, the concept was oringnal and risky. Loved it! from the vma's, grammy, essence fetival, ama's everytime, he's doin his thing! Congrats to B! So happy for her...shes such a hard worker, she needs a rest. Alicia can deff. hold it down till' she comes back~~~~~~~~

Yeah the show was a little

Yeah the show was a little mediocre - Beyonce is "What that is" whether you hater want to admit it or not! Come on having one of the hottest country groups singing a r&B song? get it Beyonce! Everybody was it me or did Beyonce put a little extra hip action in her walk then flipped her hair like "Bitch What!" when she walked off? Did I imagine that? Alicia "did that" too. She should have rethought that outfit she didnt have the "bust" for it she was a lil stiff dancing too. But the remix was untouchable by far the best performance - Rihanna ass looked like she was full of embombing fluid

I'm sorry I missed that show. I heard it was something to see; and that's rarely said about awards shows nowadays... Yeah, Nicole wore some bs on the carpet, then heated it up for the rest of the night. I still hate those contraptions that Balenciaga calls a shoe on B’s feet. They look like my nephew’s bike.

Y is she still performing

Y is she still performing irreplaceable? She is so over exposed, her red carpet look was on point though. Alicia Key's performance was FIREEEEE!!! Loves it and like everybody else said the other performers were Junior Reid and Chakademus and Pliers show the reggae pioneers some respect 'Tasha!!
