The black and white video showed Piggy getting a mouthful of leaves as she stands outside in a winter coat in a recreation of the British singer’s smash hit. Minaj also swept her category, winning both favorite rap/hip-hop artist and favorite rap/hip-hop album for “The Pinkprint”.

Celine Dion had no other nominations to defend, no red carpet paparazzi to give pouting looks or plastic smiles to, but instead, performed an homage to Paris, “Hymne a L’Amour”, without an utterance in English, no translation, and no breathless back up dancers.
One Direction is nominated for artist of the year, pitting the group against Grande, Bryan, Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift.

It was a full-on show from the start with J. Lo opening the awards with her 1999 single Waiting For Tonight before launching into an incredible 10-minute medley of modern hits including Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars’s Uptown Funk, Taylor Swift’s Bad Blood and Drake’s Hotline Bling. And a clip from the new “Star Wars” film will premiere later in the show.
