American Music Awards 2008

36th annual American Music Awards took place yesterday in LA with pomp and style. Various artists like Christina Aguilera, Ne-Yo, Rihanna, Taylor Swift , Pussycat Dolls, Beyonce, Mariah Carey and Kanye West rocked the occasion with live performances and actually Beyonce stole the show when she  performed “Single Ladies”. Dayuum you could have seen her shaking her bootylicious ass…lol.

The night turned even more juicier as winners in various categories were announced. Chris Breezy was the top dog as he scooped up three awards(pop/rock male, soul/rnb male and artist of the year) followed closely by his “wify”, Rihanna who scooped two awards(pop/rock female and soul/rnb female).  Not to be left behind, was Kanye West…who collected two awards(rap/hip hop male and rap/hip hop album).  I was mad ):, those two awards belonged to Lil Weezy.  But i heard, it was a consolation prize for Kanye who fumed alot last year after getting nothing.
