Dance-sanity and 2015 AMA winners list

buzzz worthy. . .



Celine brought everyone to tears in her tribute to Paris, Justin got rained on, Trainor and Puth needed to get a room and Pentatonix  harmonized the Star Wars theme, but the most memorable moment of the American Music Awards came when the host, J Lo opened the show at the Microsoft with a musical tribute to the songs of the year.  J Lo should be crowned president of the over 40 club because she slayed the stage and could clearly dance a ring around her younger peers. Her performance got a  standing ovation to the at Sunday night event. The former Fly Girl stopped in the middle of singing and said, "This is about the music," then broke into the dance routine.  The opening was easily the top performance of the night.  In fact the entire ensemble of dancers were so "on point" that one of the ladies literally dance out of her clothes, exposing her buttocks.  However, she quickly recovered for the major wardrobe malfunction, never missing a beat.  The show was extraordinarily entertaining overall.

NEWLYWEDS: Bishop Marvin Winans weds after 30 years

  By Mona Austin One of the most eligible bacherlors in Christianity has tied the knot - Marvin Winans remarries After being single for almost 30 years, legendary gospel singer and Bishop Marvin L.
