2008 American Music Awards

Rihanna is fierce.. I think this who Sasha Fierce was trying to be this time around.. Anyway, Tocarra looks like a clown, as usual.. And I need Alicia to find a really good dermatologist so her makeup artist can stop layering so much makeup on her face..

I think that we should understand and accept that there is always going to be diversity in music and in our cultures. There is always something for everybody. With that said, there is no need to tear someone else down because you don't care for their art or music. If we all took the time to say something ugly about the next person we could all come up with something. For example, the young woman earlier said that Alicia Keys was classy and that she is always classy. Well... does sleeping with or dating a married man classy? I mean, that is if you believe the rumors and the pictures. My point is, why continue comparing everyone, let individuals be who they are with out unnecessary criticism.

I enjoyed the awards show, everyone did the damn thing, loved Beyonce, RIRI, Leona Lewis, Mariah Carey did her thing, Kanye was alright, Neyo was good, Alicia keys and Queen did there thing.............for the most part we took over the AMA's. To comment on those pictures....though i love Tocara, she has on way too much make-up. She looks like a clown in that pic.

I didn't even realized the show was on for about 20 minutes. The junk they put out now is catchy not long lasting like back in the 70's no real soul to the music these days. I saw Beyonce performed it was okay. Queen Latifah looks so pretty and so does Rihanna and Alicia Keys. Neyo and Chris Brown need a clue badly.

I didnt get a chance to watch this award show and quite franly I'm tired of all the awad showss period! I thought the BETAwards were great although some black celeb thought they were to BIG of a star to show up even when they were nominated. It seems like they give out the same awards to the same people over and over again. These awards use to mean something now there are worthless.

Ok Essence you guys get on my nerves why is there only a head shot of Tocarra? Isn't the object of this to see the outfit?

Neo has skills but when is he going to realize he is not Michaela Jackson. I wish Kanye had gone home empty handed, he such a baby. I think those were sympathy awards.
