Watch Taraji P. Henson Bring The Party To The 2020 American Music Awards

What can’t Taraji P. Henson do? The actress, philanthropist, and new podcast series host kicked off the American Music Awards 2020 with an energetic opening number many of us didn’t know we needed. Live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, Henson hit the stage with The Wiz‘s “A Brand New Day” and danced through other classics like Prince’s “Let’s Go Crazy,” Jay-Z’s “Dirt Off Your Shoulder, and Megan Thee Stallion’s “Savage.”

By the end of Cardi B’s “W.A.P.,” Henson’s outfit changes a gold bodysuit and a slew of masked dancers by her side, let’s just say Ms. Henson did that as this year’s host of the annual music award show. After completing her performance before America (and a small socially distanced audience), she got powdered up and got right into it. Alright, Taraji!
