Now let’s speak about fashion and style of AMA 2009 attendees. By the way, the event was held at L.A.’s Nokia Theatre yesterday (November 22).

My top pick is of course Rihanna in a strapless Marchesa gown with sexy floral cut-outs. The dress is truly special. It comes in an unusual shape and is black outside while being white on the inside. Fabulous white shoes and simple jewelry completed the attire.

What also deserves your attention here is Rihanna’s makeup. I think it’s crazy, not inspiring as the star might have hoped.

I love Versace and that’s why Shakira and her bright yellow strapless mini is the second on my list. Gorgeous figure plus absolutely marvellous frock and accessories make the 32-year-old beauty one of the best-looking on the red carpet.

Alicia Keys is the third with a hot blue dress embellished with gemstones.

She opted for beautiful blue shoes of the same hue, a tiny clutch and a set of sparkling jewelry to match the apparel.

Vivienne Westwood’s fan, Leona Lewis, comes next.

The dress she wore to the event was very like in style of the designer – royal luxury mixed with eccentric form in addition to simplicity of the idea. Robert Anthony ring fought for the attention of its own.

Nicole Kidman – embodiment of femininity – was dressed in a floor-sweeping one-shoulder gown. The pink dress was richly decorated with scales-like grey frills.

Black Eyed Peas soloist Fergie looked glamorous in a strapless glitzy gown by Georgio Armani Prive. And perfect black pumps to go with the dress.

The next four girls I’m going to talk about wore black to the red carpet. Colbie Caillat donned a sumptuous dress with a long train which she accessorised with black shoes and a white clutch.

Toni Braxton chose a gown with a deep decollete and a long slit. Wasn’t that too much to show?

Mary J.Blige goes in quite a contrast with Toni and shows nothing much. Her option is a floor-length body-fitting dress with a couple of knots to add sophistication. I like her wide bracelet and earings too.

Keri Hilson wasn’t that covered-up. She prefered a mini sparkling dress, a pair of chic suede shoes and a small exquisite clutch for the evening.
