It was one of the better AMA’s I’ve seen in a while but it comes nowhere close to the 80’s or the 90’s. I also think that its a reflection of where music is today. It was as bland and boring as the music that was nominated. I will give props to Lady Gaga for daring to be different. She was the best IMHO. Adam Lambert’s performance actually made me cover my eyes a couple of times, just because of how shocked I was that I was seeing what I saw. With that said, it did NOT offend me. I just wish that if he was going to do that, he’d do it AFTER his album dropped, not right before cause he’s very talented. J-Lo fall was the funniest part of the show. She can sit there and lie about it being a part of the routine but it was clear that it wasn’t supposed to end up that way. And her song was crazy wack. She needs to sit down when it comes to making music.

I’d give the AMA’s a C-.

I grew up watching the ama music awards, back in the day when we had
real music, real actual human beings that really played actual instruments,
and used thier actual real voice to sing, they didnt need over produced
over glitzed, over sized bloated horrible special effects, to take away and
distract from the viewers attention that the song sucked, and they couldnt
even sing it.
this has to be the worst 2 1/2 hours of crap i ever saw.
give me the 70’s 80;s and even some of the 90;s anyday.
the show was reflective on our current state of the world.
troubled unstable and lost souls.
lady gaga (do you really need to smash a glass box have flames coming
out your piano, smash glass bottles, give me a break!! why not audition for the rock band kiss you would fit in perfectly)
dear alica keys and jlo do you have personal wardrobe that advise you on what looks good?? (quick news flash when you are curvy and full figured
why would you wear short ugly silk shorts??)
and both new songs suck!!
this generation can keep your ipods blackberry’s, laptops and all your other electronic crap, i feel sorry for all of you.
you missed out seeing real bands like zeppelin, fleetwood mac, the stones,
aerosmith, eagles, neil young, david bowie.
every dumb performance I saw the ama’s looked the same.
and adam lambert give me a break, you should of sung a cover instead
of that horrible song you did, i dont think you grabbed your croutch enough and all your back up dancers, touching girls and boys, seems like you cant make up your mind, all done for shock value well news flash
miss thing i wasnt impressed , you give gay people i bad name!!
2009 music sucks
ama sucks
peace

Doc I enjoyed the show … it had some very entertaining moments for me … loved Janet, Lady Gaga , Mary J Blige , Kelly Clarkson , Keith Urban, Whitney Houston and beleive it or not Rihanna even held my attention. I guess you have to get what you can out of these shows.

As far as “Michael Jackson being nominated for so many awards and winning” … I didn’t have a problem with that .. It was my understanding that the nominations are based on radio airplay & record sales … it is so unfortunate that Michael Jackson passed away this year … however interest in his music peaked and radio began to play him more & sales were up.
There was also online voting and Michael Jackson fans are deidcated.

I agree with Dreamer. I actually attended the show. Only because Janet was opening. Sorry 2 say i was disappointed. The show was just boring 2 me. Gone r the days of actual superstars. The eighties was the best AMA’S.

iT WAS JUST A CERTAIN ENERGY BACK THEN THAT IS SERIOUSLY LACKING NOW IN MUSIC. Maybe the music is the blame. The only one that excited me was Lady Ga Ga. She always does the unexpected. But the rest yawn excuse me. Also Prince is right about the sound in that place, The place is immaculate. But the sound is HORRIBLE….Over all BORING BORING BORING

I disagree about this being the best AMA’s yet…janet’s Performance was the highlight……there were so many issues with this show it was ridiculous…two falls…sound issues…pitchy performances…and wrong song choices…..people that normally give great performances fell flat…black eye’d peas, alicia keys and whitney houston and her over singing the song and then there was that eminem, 50 cent, timberland rain wreck wasn’t even necessary
