MANILA, Philippines – What’s black, white and red all over? It’s the star-studded carpet at the American Music Awards, which was held last Sunday November 23 at the Nokia Theater in LA.

Jessie J steered clear of the black party and came dressed in a crisp white suit.

 

 

Albanian singer Bleona left very little to the imagination.

 

However, Ariana Grande’s brother Frankie J beat out all the other girls for most talked-about look – he arrived with a painted-on shirt for the ceremonies (he added a gold jacket later on)!

 

 

Some artists also opted to bring out the sparkle in more colorful numbers:

Host Jordin Sparks stayed true to her name with a glittery one-piece.
