Behind the scenes at a Taylor Swift concertI definitely did not expect this one she said wearing a bright red dress.
But the awards show airing live from MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on ABC is less about the trophies and more about the performances. Selena Gomez sang her seductive new hit Come Get It while Chris Brown danced around the stage to his latest single Fine China though his voice began to crack during the performance. Duo Macklemore Ryan Lewis also performed their massive hit Thrift Shop which won top rap song.
First and foremost gotta thank Goodwill gotta thank Value Village Macklemore said to laughs.
Prince who will receive the icon award will also hit the stage and Madonna to be named top touring artist will make an appearance.
Comedian actor Tracy Morgan is the show's host and he dressed as Psy in a bright yellow suit when the rapper singer was onstage to present an award. They had a dance battle to Psy's new single Gentleman.
Jennifer Lopez Pitbull Christina Aguilera Ed Sheeran David Guetta and Kacey Musgraves will also perform Sunday night. Presenters include Shania Twain Psy Celine Dion Miley Cyrus and CeeLo Green.
RB singer Miguel seemed to kick a fan when he jumped over the crowd during a performance of his hit Adorn. He seemed to have landed part of his body on one girl who walked away and kicked another girl who held her head low.
