The Aftertaste: American Music Awards 2009

By jkennedy | November 23rd, 2009

VIBE.com fashion whiz Adrien Field separates the fashion "ill" from the "eww!" at last night's AMAs.

The Good: Whitney Houston
All eyes were on Whitney Houston last night as the diva took stage in a simple white asymmetrical sheath gown. Age-appropriate and highlighting her best assets, she looked radiant while belting out those high notes.

The Bad: Alicia Keys
Alicia Keys looked decent for her (uninterrupted) ode to New York with Jay-Z ("Empire State of Mind"), but during her performance of "Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart" the Manhattan native just couldn't pull of this jumble of gold chains and complimenting curmudgeonly buttons.

The Ugly: Jennifer LopezFor the Louboutin defamation, falling in sneakers, and the awful performance. Jenny, it's time to find a new block.
