Jennifer Lopez will grace the stage and preside over the prestigious 2025 American Music Awards, marking her second stint as the ceremony's host since her debut in 2015. Moreover, Lopez has captivated audiences over a dozen times on the AMAs stage with her mesmerizing performances.
In a statement released on Wednesday, Jay Penske, CEO of Dick Clark Productions, enthused, "We are absolutely delighted to welcome Jennifer Lopez back as the host of the American Music Awards. Jennifer's unparalleled talent and magnetic stage presence make her the perfect embodiment of this grand event. We are confident that she will infuse her unique energy into the official commencement of summer's celebration."
Teasers for Lopez's 2025 AMAs performance promise a spectacular showcase of her exceptional artistry, blending her signature blend of music, dance, and visual marvels. Last fall, during the American Music Awards 50th Anniversary Special broadcast on CBS, Lopez hinted at her potential return, saying, "Maybe I'll do it again one day," leaving fans eagerly anticipating her comeback.
The singer-actress, a three-time AMA winner, holds the distinctive honor of being the only female artist to simultaneously top the charts with both an album and a film. The fan-voted awards show, set to air live from Las Vegas on Memorial Day, Monday, May 26, on the CBS Television Network, and stream on Paramount+ in the United States, promises an unforgettable night of musical excellence.
Nominations for the esteemed awards will be unveiled at a later date. Dick Clark Productions is responsible for producing the American Music Awards, sponsored by On the Rocks Premium Cocktails as the official cocktail.
Created by Dick Clark Productions, DCP is owned by Penske Media Corporation, the parent company of The Hollywood Reporter, through a subsidiary joint venture with Eldridge, ensuring the continuation of this iconic awards ceremony.
