AMAs fashion, winners & losers: Rihanna, Lady Gaga & Adam Lambert

It's not like the American Music Awards are really about the awards, but I'll give you the brief list of winners just in case. Favorite Group: The Black Eyed Peas; Country Band/Duo/Group: Rascal Flatts; Female Pop/Rock Artist: Taylor Swift; Alternative Rock Artist: Green Day; Male Soul/R&B Artist: Michael Jackson; Male Country Artist: Keith Urban; Female Soul/R&B Artist: Beyonce; Female Country Artist: Taylor Swift; Male Pop/Rock Artist: Michael Jackson; Male Rap/Hip-Hop Artist: Jay-Z; Artist of the Year: Taylor Swift. So, yeah. Taylor Swift was the big winner, once again. She didn't even show up. She accepted via satellite, because she's in Europe.



As far as the fashion went, well... it looks like no one really called their stylist to ensure they would look amazing last night. I guess Nicole Kidman looked cute, sort of. She was her husband's date (he won) and she was a presenter with Kate Hudson, who almost flashed her bits in a really low-cut silver number. Kidman wore silver too - a silver and pink striped gown that I find ugly, but whatever.



One of the biggest fashion disasters was Rihanna, of course. The girl can't go a week without getting something wrong in some epic, horrible way. On the red carpet, she wore an ugly black strapless gown. For her performance, however, she changed into this monstrosity. White bondage... that is pretty much grotesque. Oh, and she fake-tattooed her album name (Rated R') on her chest and neck.



And of course, Lady Gaga. She scares children at this point.



And then, of course, there was Adam Lambert's performance. Ugh. People are describing this sh-t as raunchy'. I think it's just weak. You can tell how bad his voice is, and now all he's got is dumb I'm so avant garde because I'm gay' crap. The Huffington Post is claiming Lambert fell' during his performance just like Jennifer Lopez, but I kind of think the tumble was minor, and may have been part of the thing. Whatever:



You know what I did last night? I watched my DVDs of The West Wing, season 7. And I feel like a better person for it. Seriously.
