Michael Jackson's impact on the music world was still being felt last night as the King of Pop won four American Music Awards on the evening. Jackson took home Best Pop/Rocck Male Artist, Best Soul/R&B Male Artist, Best Pop/Rock Album and Best Soul/R&B Album. The awards followed his compilation greatest hits collection, Number Ones and Michael's brother Jermaine Jackson was on hand to accept the awards.
"He saw good in everyone and he wanted everyone to do good," Jermaine told the audience. "He always started with love." Ultimately, the evening did focus on the live performances and the awards to the performers who are currently dominating the musical landscape.
Taylor Swift was the big winner on the night, taking home 5 awards and the overall prize of Artist of the Year. Swift wasn't present to accept her award, but she was able to do so via a feed from England. During her brief acceptance speech, Swift acknowledged what an honor it was for her to be nominated in a category with Michael Jackson.
The evening included numerous live performances, including some especially memorable ones from Lady GaGa and Jennifer Lopez. Lady Gaga smashed her way into a glass room and played a piano that was on fire on the stage. Jennifer Lopez, on the other hand, got a little too quick with some of her dance moves and ended up falling on her arse. No injuries were reported and the show continued without incident.
