If you missed the AMAs Sunday, here are a couple of memorable moments:
Rihanna nabbed the first AMA Icon Award. She was presented the Award by her mother – Mama Fenty (which made me tear up), a pre-taped Jay Z and the very unlikely Bill Maher. She gave the audience a glowing performance of her big hit “Diamonds” from her current album – Unapologetic. Donned in a tame long black dress with a plunging neck line, RiRi looked flawless but it was pinned hair that had social media in a stir. Catch her performance – and hair – below

Justin Timberlake took home three glass trophies, one for favorite male pop/rock artist and the awards for favorite male soul and R&B artist and favorite soul and R&B album. For his turn at the mic, JT performed the “drinking song” “Drink You Away” with his back-up band The Tennessee Kids.

Ariana Grande took home the award for Best New Artist and gave the break out performance of the night with her performance of the doo-wop single, “Tattooed Heart.”

Lady Gaga and R. Kelly seemed to pick up where they left off the uncomfortably entertaining performance on SNL a week ago. This time they took it to the oval office.

Lil Mama joined T-Boz and Chilli for their performance of the hit “Waterfalls.” We all remember Lil Mama played Left Eye in their recent biopic.
