Tense moment between Megan Moroney and Shaboozy at American Music Awards leaves viewers stunned
Things turned tense on stage during the American Music Awards after Megan Moroney made a joke that didn't seem to go over well with Shaboozy. Megan, 27, and Shaboozy, 30, teamed up to present the award for Favorite Country Duo or Group during the event on Monday. But when the singer made a bold claim about who 'invented country music,' Shaboozy appeared completely unamused. Before reading the results, Megan reflected on the Carter Family, an American folk music group who was the first ever to win the award in 1974. 'The first award went to the Carter Family, who basically invented country music,' she said. But right after she made the statement, things immediately turned awkward as Shaboozy appeared to give her some side-eye. The two stars sat there in silence for a couple of seconds as he starred at her; after a long pause before, he chuckled and announced the winner. Viewers immediately took to X, formerly Twitter, to discuss the painful moment. Megan, 27, and Shaboozy, 30, teamed up to present the award for Favorite Country Duo or Group during the event on Monday 'Megan Moroney just said the Carter Family invented country music and Shaboozy just shot her the hardest side eye. That's what I came here for,' one user joked. 'Megan Moroney shading The Carter's on national television is craaaazy,' added another. Someone else penned, 'BYE SHABOOZEY SIDE-EYEING MEGAN MORONEY. Saying white people invented country music in front of a black country artist is sending me. Megan girl nooooo.' 'This is so awkward,' a fourth tweet read. A fifth said, 'The carter family definitely shaped country, but invented? Bit of a stretch.' Others, however, defended Megan. 'Megan Moroney did not write the script (she was just reading the prompter),' one person pointed out. 'People hating on what Megan Moroney said acting like she wrote what to say on the teleprompter... DON'T piss me off omg,' agreed a different user. The American Music Awards took place on Monday, May 26, at the Fontainebleau hotel located in the heart of Las Vegas - and it was certainly filled with other interesting moments. Right after she made the statement, things immediately turned awkward as Shaboozy appeared to give her some side-eye At one point, Tiffany Haddish took a subtle swipe at Jennifer Lopez 's split from Ben Affleck. Tiffany, 45, was presenting the award for Favorite R&B Song when she made a shocking joke about JLO's love life. Jennifer, 55, who is hosting the awards show, opened the event with a dazzling medley of her biggest hits. Tiffany then hit the stage to reveal the first winner of the night, but before reading the results to the audience, she took a moment to gush over how impressive the Jenny From the Block songstress' performance was. But the actress and comedian couldn't help but poke fun at JLo's newly single status. 'Our host just danced to 23 hits in six minutes. Just from that opening number alone, Jenny From the Block got all her steps in for the day,' she said. She then joked, 'Save some dancing for me JLo, damn. You ain't the only one out here that's single.' An onlooker told that JLo laughed the joke off. Viewers immediately took to X, formerly Twitter, to discuss the painful moment JLO was brutally savaged by fans over her AMAs performance, which included a shocking make-out session with one of her dancers. Spectators quickly took to social media to discuss the act. 'Jennifer Lopez has lost the plot,' one person wrote on X, with another asking, 'Why is Jennifer Lopez kissing everyone at the AMAs?' Another shocked fan said, 'Just looked up from my phone and JENNIFER LOPEZ IS KISSING A GIRL?!?!'
