Fri Nov 18 2011 by Becky Bain
The 2011 American Music Awards returns once again this Sunday, and though its main purpose is to honor the best in music by handing out trophies, the greatest honor an artist can receive is landing one of the many, many performance slots during the three-hour show. This year's crop of performers is certainly an all-star cast featuring the biggest names and loudest voices in pop, country, hip-hop and R&B, and as last year's show received the lowest ratings in the history of the telecast, there's nowhere to go but up, right?

2010 American Music Awards: The Liveblog
Sun Nov 21 2010 by Becky Bain
It's a daunting task to choose between a teen heartthrob, a perky pop starlet, a grime-loving newcomer, a bizarrely dressed monster and a redeemed rap star as the year's best, but tonight's 2010 American Music Awards aims to do just that. Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Ke$ha, Lady Gaga and Eminem are all up for Artist of the Year, though we're sure all five nominees are worthy of the honor in their own way. (Gaga certainly deserves to win Sandwich Artist of the Year with her brilliant Miracle Whip-spreading skills in the "Telephone" video.)
