All the stars were out last night, as some of today's most talked about celebrities gathered for the 2014 American Music Awards. Featuring performances by artists like Lorde, Mary J Blige, Jennifer Lopez, Pitbull, Selena Gomez, and more, the award show definitely provided an exciting night full of great music and entertainment!
I enjoyed all of the performances and really enjoyed the show. I usually get bored, but this time I really found myself interested during the entire show. My favorite performances was Selena Gomez singing her new hit single, "The Heart Wants What It Wants."
Now, to be perfectly honest, any real singer or musician knows that Selena Gomez is by no means the greatest singe in the world. Her voice is average, and there are millions of people that can sing the songs she sings. However, this performance was different. She really opened up to the audience and viewers and left her heart on the stage. She was more vulnerable than I've ever seen her before, and for that I have to give her an A+. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Of course, I loved Lorde's performance as well. Her talent is so genuine. Her voice is haunting, and her writing is impeccable. She doesn't feel the need to prance around on stage and belt high notes to impress the crowd. She can captivate an audience with nothing more than her sultry, haunting tone, and her beautifully written songs.
Overall, I thought the show was great. I wish I could've went, but I'm thankful for my friends over at the AMA's and Getty Images for providing me with some high res photos. Be sure to check them out above! What was your favorite moment of the night?
