The singer opted for a double-lapel, single-breasted tuxedo jacket engraved with monochromatic floral patterns. The silver notch buckle of the jacket offered a unique feel to modern suiting. He paired the asymmetrical silhouette with black slacks and accessorized with suede boots. 

Parigi wore a long-sleeve black sequined dress that featured a slightly padded shoulder silhouette along with a plunging neckline. Draped and ruched detailing began below the bodice and accentuated the open-slit hem of the dress.

She coordinated the black dress with a pink lip, a pink manicure and pedicure and a sleek middle-parted hairstyle. For accessories, Parigi wore long dangling earrings, a beaming clutch and finalized the look with open-toe gold stiletto sandals.

The AMAs honors the year’s top achievements in the music industry — and claims the honor of being the largest fan-voted awards show in the world. The 2022 ceremony, hosted by Wayne Brady on Nov. 20 in Los Angeles, will feature a range of performances by Carrie Underwood Imagine Dragons, David Guetta and Anitta. The evening will also include a musical tribute to Lionel Richie — winner of the event’s 2022 Icon Award — by Charlie Puth, Stevie Wonder and Ari Lennox, as well as a performance by Pink in honor of the late Olivia Newton-John.
