The Dudes of the AMAs

Macaulay Culkin

I have NO IDEA why Macaulay Culkin came to the American Music Awards, but I'll allow it.

THESE are The Chainsmokers. I have been covering them at these events for YEARS and they could still both run me over with their respective cars and I wouldn't be able to ID them. All I'd be able to say would be that one of them was wearing a suit that looked like the inside of a fancy envelope.

Rami Malek

Yes, Rami Malek, I ALSO like a jaunty blazer!

Khalid

Men are really into dusty rose right now. You heard it here. Don't be surprised when your boyfriend comes home with a pair of shorts this color, come spring.

Zedd

I sincerely thought this person was part of One Direction for a REALLY long time. (Music is, uh, my weakest section of pop culture.)

Post Malone

It's rare that I think, "I wish Kesha were wearing that instead of this person," but here we are.

Evan Ross

I might have suggested a tee shirt, but this suit is REALLY good. (Evan has very stylish genes indeed.)

Damon Sharpe

He looks like an evil magician with a VERY well wall-papered powder room.

NCT 127

There are A LOT of people in this group!

Shawn Mendes

I have a confession: I would have had a HUGE crush on Shawn Mendes if we had been young in the same era.

Thomas Rhett

Kind sir, with respect: You are not pulling this off. (Although I guess it's sweet that he has a cartoon drawing of his family inside it.)

Grey

This duo are brothers and they do some kind of electronica, but they mostly look like they've come from our dystopian future to give us all a warning.
