Wayne Brady, award-winning actor, producer and musician on hosting the AMA’s said, “I'm ecstatic and honoured to host this year's AMAs. As a musician and music lover, it's amazing to be part of a night where music fans make their voices heard! It's a big show, so I'm bringing it all...The funny, the music and the moves!”
 
Global superstars that span across generations and genres, including Carrie Underwood, Imagine Dragons, J.I.D, P!NK, Tems, and Wizkid will be seen performing at the 2022 AMA. Yola will take the stage for never-before-seen musical performances and first-ever collaborations as well as perform the American Music Awards SONG OF SOUL, which spotlights an emerging, mission-driven artist that has inspired change and invoked social justice through their lyrics.
 
The legendary singer-songwriter Lionel Richie will be bestowed with the esteemed ‘Icon Award’ in recognition of the global influence his music has had over the years. Talking about receiving this award, Lionel Richie said, “I’m immensely grateful for a career that has taken me to places I never imagined that I’d go, from arenas worldwide to studio sets to the AMA stage. I can recall one of the first times I got to perform at the AMAs. It was to sing ‘We Are the World’ among the most iconic musicians of my generation, so it is surreal to be receiving this recognition 36 years later.”
 
To end the night on a high note, multiple international superstars such as Adele, Bad Bunny, Beyoncé, Drake, Harry Styles, Taylor Swift and The Weeknd will battle it out for the night’s biggest honour, Artist of the Year. The “2022 American Music Awards” winners are voted entirely by fans.
