American Music Awards

Rihanna has a big night ahead of her at the 2013 American Music Awards. In addition to performing at the award show, she will also be receiving the very first AMA Icon Award.

Get ready for another epic Katy Perry awards show performance, Katycats!

The 2013 Oscars happened Sunday night, Feb. 24. Here are the winners from the telecast.

Quvenzhané Wallis is the adorable girl who played "Hushpuppy" in the Oscar-nominated film 'Beasts of the Southern Wild,' and America's been going wild over the cutie pie ever since. (She just scored the role of Annie in Jay-Z's big screen update of the classic musical.) This nine-year-old (yes, NINE) is up for the Best Actress award at tonight's Oscars, and there's no doubt she's holding

Robert De Niro is nominated for an Oscar for his performance in 'Silver Linings Playbook,' but today we take a look back at this legendary performer and best supporting actor nominee's earlier work.

The Oscar nominations were as unsurprising as we expected them to be, but the stars who garnered them still had to act surprised anyway. (Good thing they have plenty of practice making emotions happen on the spot.) Here's what the nominees had to say in these carefully-worded reactions.

Ouch. Christina Aguilera has come under quite a bit of criticism for her weight gain, and now fans and foes are scrutinizing the starlet yet again. This time, they're asking if she's been Photoshopped on the cover of OK Magazine ... to look bigger.

This year's American Music Awards may have set an all-time ratings low for the 40-year institution, but some fans were still heavily invested in who won and lost -- as Carly Rae Jepsen discovered after beating out One Direction for New Artist of the Year.

Given that 'Gangnam Style' is one of the most popular songs of 2012, it's not surprising that Psy was tapped to close last night's American Music Awards. But it WAS totally surprising when MC Hammer joined him onstage for an awesome mashup featuring 'Too Legit to Quit.'

Despite the fact that they did not sit next to one another at the ceremony, and that she seemed nowhere to be found, and the fact that he didn't give her a shout-out or thank her during any of his acceptance speeches, Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez were seen exiting the 2012 American Music Awards holding hands. So much for being broken up... we think!

The American Music Awards took place last night (Nov. 18), with the music world's elite gracing the red carpet and looking gorgeous while doing it -- and thanks to some smart stylist choices, some of pop's prettiest ladies hit their highest fashion notes of the year.

Swizz Beatz, Chris Brown and Ludacris had the audience jumping out of their seats at the 2012 American Music Awards with their celebratory song 'Everyday Birthday.' The trio performed the song to wish the AMAs its 40th birthday. How nice!

The American Music Awards confirmed what millions of Beliebers already thought: Justin Bieber is the Artist of the Year for 2012.

The fact that K-Pop sensation Psy, who shot to fame as a YouTube sensation, closed the 40th anniversary edition of the American Music Awards tonight (Nov. 18) with his viral smash 'Gangnam Style' was indicative of the times we live in. The AMAs may be four decades old, but they change with the times and are certainly embracing the digital age.

What a match up bringing 50 Cent and 'Nashville' star Hayden Panettiere together to announce Nicki Minaj as the winner of the Favorite Rap/Hip Hop Artist category at the 2012 American Music Awards.

Pitbull's performance at the 2012 American Music Awards began before the applause for Christina Aguilera had even died down, so we had a feeling they were tied together in some way. Sure enough, after a ferocious rendition of 'Don't Stop the Party,' Pitbull brought out Xtina for a cameo on their new collaboration.
