American Music Awards 2009

During the American Music Awards, Taylor Swift won 5 major prizes, including the Artist of the year. This young and talented singer has proved everyone (including the insenstive Kanye West who humiliated Taylor) that she deserves to win. Also that remarkable night, Rihanna and Whitney Houston gave their own presentations that made people overwhelmed by their comebacks. Lady Gaga and Adam Lambert also gave their very impressing performances that night.
For most of the people, that night was a memorable one because they honored the late Michael Jackson. Jermaine Jackson accepted all the honor on His brother’s behalf. He said “It’s not just about the winnings, the awards, it’s mainly the message. The message that Michael had will live on forever…and he saw good in everyone and he wanted them to do good. To start with love and let’s love each other.”
The night was also full of joyful and inspirational songs from different artists. Houston performed her new single “I didn’t know my own strength” which got a standing ovation. Shakira also brought down the house with her new drum-heavy single “Give it up to me”. Mary J. Blige, Carry Underwood, Alicia Keys, Jay-Z, Black-eyed peas, Eminem, 50 cent, Madonna and Jennifer Lopez also gave their breath taking performances. We’re blessed with so may talented people in the music industry and they really deserve to have these awesome awards. I hope that the next generation will also produce young artists that will promote good music. More power to the music industry!
