WATCH: AMAs Recap: Janet, Rihanna, J.Lo, Jay-Z, Whitney, Lady Gaga


The American Music Awards were last night. Think of the show as the Grammy's far distant and less-sophisticated cousin. The AMAs awards pop stars for moving a lot of units.

Anyway, here are some of the performances everyone are talking about: Janet opened the show with her headset not plugged into anything; Miss Fenty showed up in strips of cloth, bullets on her shoulders and a fake tattoo of her album name on her chest (she left her voice at home, however); Jennifer Lopez proved that you can't lip sync, dance and jump all at the same time; Lady Gaga is still scaring kids and she set a piano on fire, literally; Adam Lambert rubbed a dude's face in his crotch; and, oh, Whitney was there, too.
