Justin Bieber Is The AMA Artist Of The Year

The 16-year-old heartthrob went four-for-four on Nov 21 night. He captured every award he was nominated for. The awards included the top award of the night, which was favorite artist. He beat the veterans like Eminem and Usher , Katy Perry and Lady Gaga.  Bieber has become the youngest person to ever win the trophy. Bieber has also won favorite pop album, show’s breakthrough artist award and favorite pop male.

“I can’t stop smiling, this is amazing.” Bieber said after he also beat Eminem and Usher for favorite pop/rock male.  “Truly I don’t know how this is possible because I have been singing Eminem since I was three and Usher is my mentor. So, this is big.”

Katy Perry had the evening’s most explosive performance as pyrotechnics gave her performance of her latest son. “Firework.” Swift, last year’s artist of the year, took home favorite country female. Sporting sleek blonde hair instead of her usual cascading curls, Swift said simply. “I just want to thank the fans.”

Ke$hagave the night’s most bizarre performance. She performed her heavily Auto-Tuned hit “Take It Off” looking like something out of space, with beams of light for eyes and sporting a motorcycle helmet. She later on stripped down to a monitored outfit, segueing into the next song with a pack of male dancers dressed like her, complete with blond wigs and fishnet stockings.
