Ciara hosted the show this year and donned several enviable outfits throughout the night and managed to serve up a power-packed performance of her latest single, “Melanin.”
Lizzo took the stage to perform her latest single “Jerome” in a wine-colored gown that was simply stunning. She earned a standing ovation from the star-studded crowd when she ended the soulful song on her knees.
Toni Braxton made a triumphant return to the AMAs stage with a stirring rendition of her hit “Un-break My Heart.” She was accompanied by violinists, cellists and other string players as she belted out the iconic R&B hit. The singer who last hit the American Music Awards stage in 2001 wore a lacy white dress that showed off every curve and reminded everyone in the room that she’s still got it.
