American Music Awards 2015: List of Winners!

The 2015 American Music Awards are in the books, and the annual extravaganza – with its honors voted on by the fans – lived up to its billing.


By default. If you watched, you’re most likely interested in the A-list stars and popular artists (term used loosely at times) that cleaned up Sunday.



Plus, with Queen of the Booty herself Jennifer Lopez as MC, how could that alone not make this over-the-top musical gathering an event to remember?


The only drawback? Taylor Swift did not attend. Crushing.
