Benson Boone Rocks Bold Purple Patterned Suit for His 'Mystical Magical' 2025 AMAs Performance

Boone has become known for his bold fashion choicesBenson Boone was red hot at the 2025 American Music Awards.
The pop star, 22, performed his single "Mystical Magical" off of his upcoming album American Heart in yet another bold look on May 26.
Boone wore a purple patterned suit for his performance, consisting of a cropped jacket and flared pants. The jacket was worn over a white top, and the pants were topped with a white belt. The outfit was complete with bright white boots and David Yurman jewelry.
Boone is up for five awards — including New Artist of the Year, Favorite Male Pop Artist, as well as Song of the Year, Favorite Music Video and Favorite Pop Song for his hit 'Beautiful Things.'
The star's AMA nominations are part of his breakout year. After releasing "Beautiful Things" in January 2024, Boone released his debut album Rollerblades & Fireworks that April. The album's success propelled Boone to new heights, including a Grammy nomination and a slate of high-level performances. He opened for Taylor Swift during the Eras Tour in London last June and performed at Coachella in April.
Boone is one of six performers across a variety of genres to perform at the show. Also gracing the AMAs stage are Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani, Gloria Estefan, Lainey Wilson and Reneé Rapp.
Boone has quickly made a name for himself with his distinctive personal style. For his performance at the Grammys, where he was nominated for best new artist, Heidi Klum and Nikki Glaser ripped off his suit to reveal a sparkly ab-baring jumpsuit. The look was so noteworthy that Mark Zuckerberg borrowed the jumpsuit to surprise his wife, Priscilla Chan, with his own "Beautiful Things" performance at her 40th birthday party.
Zuckerberg also referenced another viral moment in Boone's performance.
During his medley, Boone pulled on the crotch of his skin-tight costume. He later quipped on Instagram, "Sorry for adjusting my jumpsuit so aggressively on stage tonight that thing was aggressively restricting in certain areas."
Zuckerberg seemed to agree. Alongside a video of him in costume, he joked, "Ok I get it ... it's pretty snug."

But the awards show isn't just serving up great looks and performances. Since the show takes place on Memorial Day, the AMAs teamed up with the Easy Day Foundation, a Las Vegas-based nonprofit that helps veterans transition to civilian life, "to present several special in-show moments that celebrate Veterans while raising funds for a variety of national and local organizations," according to a press release.
This will include two performances and the "presentation of a special award honoring a marquee talent who uses their platform to make meaningful contributions to the veteran community."
The 2025 American Music Awards are airing on Monday, May 26, at 8 p.m. EST on CBS and on Paramount+.

Offers include a six-month DashPass membership from DoorDash, discounted stays at Walt Disney World, and savings when you shop from Adidas or Funko, along with rotating contests. Hulu is launching its own loyalty scheme on June 2nd. Details on that are still to come, but it will include offers from companies including Microsoft, Pure Green, and LG, with new perks dropping weekly over the summer. To take advantage of the perks you simply have to be a subscriber to either streaming service, and you'll get access to both programs if you subscribe to one of the company's Disney Plus and Hulu bundle plans.

10 Gifts That Scream Summer Camp Nostalgia
In this edition of The Gift, we've found some gifts that channel cool, retro-summer camp vibes. Plus: a super-light camping chair we love and some throwback soccer shorts. I didn't go to traditional sleepaway camp as a kid. My dad was a professor at a local university and had summers off to hang. He was also fixated on me becoming a pro women's basketball player — about 25 years too early — so the only camp he'd pony up for was a weeklong basketball intensive. There were no s'mores, no archery, no bonfires. Just defensive drills, one-on-ones, and plenty of footfires. All of which partially explains why I have such imagined nostalgia for real summer camp. Label my clothes! Assign me a cabin! And please, please teach me to make a lanyard. I think a lot of us carry this fantasy for an imagined summer escape. Some of it, no doubt, comes from culture, too. Blame it on Meatballs, Salute Your Shorts, or The Parent Trap, but every year as Memorial Day passes, I find myself lusting after pine trees, cabin stays, singalongs, and lakeside lounging. And adding a few finds to my life that have a certain vintage summer vibe to them tends to scratch this itch. It makes me feel a bit like I'm the main character in an idyllic, camp-y movie — with plenty of warm months ahead of me to enjoy. So it's with confidence that I say no matter where you're traveling or staying this summer, infusing a little camp vibes into your gifting — for others or yourself — will be much appreciated. A few ideas: A few years back I got a Hometown Apparel sweatshirt screenprinted with the name of a beloved local lake. It's now my summer uniform. If you're visiting someone at a cottage or cabin, a hoodie with the name of the town would make a thoughtful, cozy houseguest gift. (You can find any town on the site. Prove me wrong!) These extremely cozy modern striped tube socks also have that '70s camp uniform feel. A great group gift for a friend trip. You needn't be sipping powdered lemonade in the mess hall to appreciate this classic enamelware pitcher. If I really get my act together, I'll bring one with flowers in it when I visit a friend in his Hamptons' rental this summer. I'm also smitten with these splatterware tumblers, which could work as vessels for juleps or spritzers (and toothbrushes in the off season). No summer camp would be complete without nature walks and arts and crafts. During the pandemic lockdowns, I gave a friend one of these grown-up tie-dye kits, which comes with a shibori tutorial and all the fixings, (a silk handkerchief, plant-based dye). Meanwhile, kids might have a lot of fun with these animal print stamps, while their grown-ups enjoy these pocket-sized nature study guides. The guides are less than $10 apiece and would be great on the coffee table of any summer retreat. (The scat finder one is a real crowdpleaser.) As for letters home, shouldn't we all have a set of these Sakura Cray-Pas Japanese pastels and a pad of postcards? Store-bought postcards are nice, but homemade ones are even better, and those smudgy oil pastels make it easy to succeed with more abstract interpretations of one's surroundings. Both gifts take up next-to-zero room in an overnight bag — er, trunk. I'll leave you with this fancy s'mores kit courtesy of Recchiuti, makers of one of our favorite boxed chocolates. The shipping charges almost double the cost, but that one singular bite of melty, marshmallow-y goodness — under the stars or over your stove's pilot light — will be a slam dunk.

McDavid and Oilers set for another Cup chance against Panthers in a run that feels different
DALLAS — This playoff run has felt different for Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers, though they are now back in the same place. They have advanced to their second Stanley Cup Final in a row , again against Florida after losing a seven-game series to the Panthers last June.
