Lizzo and “Jerome” was the perfect combination at the AMA’s 2019.
Lizzo a now eight-time Grammy-nominated took the Microsoft Theatre stage on Sunday (November 24), shoeless and dressed in a tulle-covered, purple gown. She sang a soulful single, from her 2019 album Cuz I Love You, while standing atop a rotating pedestal.
Her lyrics sang, “Take your ass home And come back when you’re grown Jerome, Jerome Go on, take your ass home Where the peaches have thorns Poor little baby Who told you that you stood a chance with this royalty? You’re so sweet, bless your heart Can’t let a pretty face distract me from business And God as my witness, your ugly ass won’t either I’m sorry.”
The “Truth Hurts” singer’s show-stopping AMAs performance came just days after she celebrated her eight Grammy nominations (the most of any of the 2020 nominees), which was included in the top four categories: Best New Artist, Record of the Year (“Truth Hurts”), Song of the Year (“Truth Hurts”), and Album of the Year (Cuz I Love You).
“This has been an incredible year for music and I’m just so thankful to even be part of it,” Lizzo tweeted after the nominations were announced. “We are all winners.”
Lizzo was also nominated for Best Pop Solo Performance (“Truth Hurts”), Best R&B Performance (“Exactly How I Feel” featuring Gucci Mane), Best Traditional R&B Performance (“Jerome”) and Best Urban Contemporary Album (Cuz I Love You)
