Letter from producers Welcome to the “2013 American Music Awards.” Tonight’s show will pay tribute to the year’s most iconic and influential artists and this year’s most relevant breakthrough artists. It is the tradition of the American Music Awards to unite and honor artists from all genres, on one stage, as we celebrate the universal language of music. Tonight, we have gathered global superstar performers Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake, One Direction, Lady Gaga, Imagine Dragons, Miley Cyrus, Florida Georgia Line, Luke Bryan, Jennifer Lopez, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Rihanna, Kendrick Lamar, Pitbull feat. Ke$ha and the new TLC feat. Lil’ Mama. Music sensation, Pitbull, MR. WORLDWIDE, makes his hosting debut as he takes the reigns of tonight’s television event. Over the next three hours, as we reveal the winners of this year’s American Music Awards, remember that your votes have determined who takes home the trophies. Throughout the show, we invite you to post your own thoughts on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram by using #AMAs. As always, you’re an important part of the celebration of the past year in music. We would like to give a special thank you to our friends at ABC, as well as all of tonight’s presenters, performers and sponsors. A big thank you to our crew, who year after year, make this show better than the last. Our team has truly outdone themselves this year. This is where some people would say sit back and enjoy another epic night of music, but we’d rather say stand up, shout, dance, and have an unforgettable evening at the 2013 American Music Awards.

On The Web www.lesmiserablesfilm.com Facebook.com/LesMisMovie Twitter.com/LesMiserables

NOMINATED FOR TOP SOUNDTRAC

Label | Village Roadshow Pictures/ Bazmark/ Warner Bros. Pictures/ Interscope Records/ WaterTower Music The Buzz | Debuted No. 2 on the Billboard chart. Currently gold.

Here’s what the critics have had to say about The Great Gatsby soundtrack: “… Luhrmann uses music not simply as atmosphere or emotional punctuation but as a primary storytelling device, a means of putting the viewer in the world of his characters.” — The LA Times “… musical roller coaster mixes electronica, hip-hop and rock with jazz-age sounds into a breathy, sexy, dangerous, electric result.” — The Washington Post “The Great Gatsby features a stunning array of hip-hop royals, pop champs and de rigueur alternative rockers. Distilling the essence of the Jazz Age though never completely reflecting it, this soundtrack is as much an event as is the film that inspired it.” — NPR “The Gatsby soundtrack seems, on the whole, to be an extraordinary melding of vintage and contemporary sounds, fulfilling JAY Z and Luhrmann’s goal to ‘translate Jazz Age sensibilities’ into something that can speak to, and enchant, the modern listener.” … “Lana Del Rey’s ‘Young and Beautiful’ proves itself a sweeping and gorgeous ballad, ably evoking the romantic drama of Fitzgerald’s classic while taking full advantage of Del Rey as a no-brainer fit for this endeavor.” — Slant Magazine
