AMAs 2017 red carpet live stream: Where, when to watch
If you look below via Twitter, you can see that there is an official live stream coming at 6:00 p.m. Eastern time via the link established in the tweet. (All you’re going to have to do is click here.) While in the past it was a little more difficult to find good red-carpet live stream links, times are changing thanks to a number of different things — with at the top of the list being a better understanding of what fans want and how to drive attention to your ceremony. If you’re giving people easy access to the red carpet, they in turn are going to be more inclined to watch the AMAs themselves starting at 8:00 p.m. Eastern.
One thing to remember — ABC is the only authorized broadcaster/streamer in America for the show. Many other sites advertising live streams today are getting them from unofficial sources, so use those at your own discretion.
The AMAs this year are being hosted by Tracee Ellis Ross of black-ish fame and features a lineup of star-studded performers including BTS, Christina Aguilera, Florida Georgia Line, Lady Gaga, Nick Jonas, P!nk, Diana Ross, Hailee Steinfeld, Alessia Cara, Imagine Dragons, Shawn Mendes, Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez, Niall Horan, and a wide array of other performers. BTS is the group getting the most worldwide attention leading into the show; the Korean pop group has been famous in much of the world for some time, but really broke out in America over the course of this past year. They’ve recently performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and a wide array of other entertainment news shows.
As for the presenters, you’re getting a pretty random group of people from Billy Eichner to DJ Khaled, Chris Hardwick, Chrissy Metz, Heidi Klum, Jared Ledo, many of the Sharks from Shark Tank, Ciara, Jenna Dewan-Tatum, Kat Graham, Viola Davis, some cast members of Riverdale, This Is Us, and many more. If you love entertainment in general then this is the show for you.
