Ieri sera gli AMAs si sono tenuti al Microsoft Theatre di Los Angeles, rigorosamente vuoto e con delle esibizioni da far paura.
Anche questa volta Taylor Swift, nonostante sia mancata all’appello, si è portata a casa i premi più importanti: Artist of the Year, Favorite Music Video e Favorite Female Artist – Pop/Rock, mantenendo il record per il maggior numero di vittorie nella sua carriera. Anche The Weeknd ha mostrato le sue carte vincenti, arrivato con 8 nomination, ha concluso con tre vittorie, quella per Favorite Male Artist – Soul/R&B, Favorite Album – Soul/R&B con “After Hours” e Favorite Song – Soul/R&B con “Heartless”.
Per quanto riguarda il mondo hip hop, il premio per il miglior album è andato a Roddy Ricch, che ha lasciato a mani vuote Lil Uzi e Lil Baby, mentre la miglior canzone è stata “WAP“, unico premio conquistato da Megan Thee Stallion, che ha tenuto un’esibizione da paura del suo nuovo singolo “Body”.
