Lopez is hosting the AMAs at the BleauLive Theater in Las Vegas in less than two weeks. She previously emceed the show in 2015. 'We are thrilled to welcome Jennifer Lopez back to host the American Music Awards,' Penske Media Corporation CEO Jay Penske said in a press release last month. 'Jennifer's incredible talent and incomparable stage presence make her the ideal host of the show. We know she will bring her one-of-a-kind energy to the official kick-off celebration of summer,' he added. Artists nominated at the upcoming show include Ariana Grande, Chappell Roan, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Post Malone, Kendrick Lamar, Morgan Wallen, Sabrina Carpenter, Benson Boone and Bruno Mars. Lopez, who has won three AMAs, danced to a medley of the biggest songs of 2015 when she hosted for the first time. During her opening monologue, she spoke about loving the award show since she was a child and gave shoutouts to music legends including Whitney Houston, Michael and Janet Jackson, Madonna and Prince. 'This show truly inspired me,' she said on stage, 'and made me dream that someday I could be one of the lucky ones who got to appear on the stage and perform for you, the fans of music everywhere.' Lopez previously injured herself when she performed at the 2009 AMAs. She said on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' at the time that she was 'messed up' from the fall. 'One of the dancer's backs was slippery from sweat and lights and everything,' she explained of how the mishap happened. 'We never bargained for that, because they always had t-shirts on in rehearsal. So they were barebacked, didn't have shirts on for the performance, and when I stepped on their backs, my feet got wet. So when I landed, it just slipped from under me,' Lopez said. As she prepared to redo her performance with a cushion, knee pad and helmet, she joked, 'I'm going to try my hardest not to fall on my ass.' The 2025 American Music Awards are airing May 26 on CBS and streaming on Paramount+.
