The American music award held last night, with Taylor Swift winning three awards, including the biggest honour of the night, artist of the year.
The three AMAs makes her the most decorated musician ever in AMA history shattering a record previously held by Whitney Houston.
Black-ish star, Tracee Ellis Ross, hosted the event and she did a nice job, mimicking female rapper Cardi B. Cardi B who also picked up the first award on the night in the Favourite Artist – Rap/Hip-Hop category was also among the performances of the night, including Camila Cabello, Post Malone, Ella Mai.
The AMAs also paid a deserving tribute to late queen of soul, Aretha Franklin who passed away in August.
