2009 American Music Awards has just been kicked off and several early winners have been unveiled at the November 22 ceremony. After Janet Jackson performed a medley of her hit singles, Paula Abdul took the stage to announce Black Eyed Peas as Favorite Pop/Rock Band, Duo or Group.
Presented by Jason Aldean and Kristen Bell, the next award, this time for Favorite Country Band, Duo or Group, was given to Rascal Flatts. They beat Sugarland and Zac Brown Band, winning the category for four years in a row.
The likes of Shakira, DAUGHTRY, Keith Urban and Kelly Clarkson then made their live performances. Shakira delivered "Give It Up to Me", DAUGHTRY rocked "Live After You", Keith sang "Kiss a Girl" and Kelly performed "Already Gone".
Snoop Dogg and Joe Perry teamed up to present Favorite Pop/Rock Female Artist which was handed to Taylor Swift. The young singer was not present and thus gave her acceptance speech via satellite from London.
Actor Christian Slater revealed Green Day as the winner of Favorite Alternative Rock Artist. Selena Gomez and Orianthi appeared announcing Michael Jackson as Favorite Soul/R&B Male Artist. Jermaine Jackson accepted the prize on behalf of his brother.
