With the American Music Awards already underway, stars hit the red carpet immediately, bringing a high-voltage mix of glam and personality at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
The American Music Awards are already underway, and the red carpet isn’t waiting around. Teyana Taylor and a whole lineup of guests made the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas feel like the main event from the first moments.
Jason rolled into Las Vegas on Memorial Day Monday with a splash of familiar faces—Jason Derulo. Karol G. Riley Green. and Hilary Duff. who turned heads in a silver look. The arrivals kept coming. with Jessi Draper from “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” showing up with a full-on red-carpet confidence.
Reality fans weren’t missing from the mix either. Abbey Romeo and JaNa Craig kept the energy high as they arrived. while Esty delivered another standout moment on the carpet. Mia Calabrese also drew attention with a plunging look that leaned into J.Lo-inspired style. adding to the night’s bold fashion momentum.
And it wasn’t just about the outfits—performer energy was part of the spectacle. Mr. Fantasy was on hand bringing that same buzz, with Tinashe and Maluma joining the field of style and star power. Lisa Rinna arrived dressed to match the occasion. rounding out a lineup that felt built for photos. headlines. and nonstop attention.
By the time the night’s hosting spotlight landed on Queen Latifah, the red carpet had already delivered what everyone comes for: a fast, glamorous start and plenty of reasons to keep scrolling through the gallery.

Wait it’s already underway??
Hilary Duff in silver?? okay that’s all I needed to hear lol. Las Vegas red carpet always looks like everybody’s trying to win a photoshoot.
Jason Derulo showing up on Memorial Day Monday like he’s not from Vegas or something, just felt random to me. Also I thought American Music Awards were later in the year? Maybe I’m mixing it up with the MTV thing. Either way the article says Teyana Taylor had the “main event” already so I guess we’re good.
The red carpet turned up FAST like they were late and sprinting into the MGM. I keep seeing mentions of J.Lo-inspired style with that plunging look, but then it’s like half the names I don’t even know. Lisa Rinna showing up too though, so that part seems legit. Does anyone know if Queen Latifah’s hosting started right after or was it just everyone posing first?
