Fans point out the same 'wild' detail while watching the AMAs as they express extreme disappointment

American Music Award viewers are all saying the same thing about the guest list.

Once one of the biggest nights in music, the AMAs had recently taken a hiatus and returned this year for the first time since 2022.

Taylor Swift sits at the top of the AMAs chart having won a staggering 40 awards (and counting) at the star-studded night, while Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, and Kenny Rogers have also won several AMAs since the awards were first created in in 1974.

Typically, the ceremony is a star-studded affair with the likes of Selena Gomez, Rihanna, Sabrina Carpenter, Lionel Richie, and Justin Bieber being some of the biggest names to have attended the annual event; but this year's AMAs was notably lacking in A-listers.

Jennifer Lopez hosted the night in Las Vegas, but viewers spotted that there were many more influencers at the AMAs compared to previous years, seemingly in lieu of the usual musical talent that attended in the past.

Pointing this out, someone said on Twitter: "Why are there only influencers at the AMAs this year."

"There’s more influencers than music artists at the #AMAs," added another viewer.

A third continued: "Did the AMAs fall off? There’s like only influencers there not many major celebs."

Echoing similar sentiments, someone else branded it 'wild' that there were so many social media stars. They said: "Oh there are SO many influencers being featured at the #amas this is wild."

Some of the biggest names to have won awards this evening that weren't in attendance include Billie Eilish and Eminem. Both artists sent video messages accepting their awards instead.

Interestingly, this year marks the first time the AMAs have been hosted in May. Previously the star-studded night took place in October or November.
