Tonight in Los Angeles, California, the 48th version of the American Music Awards, one of the most glamorous accolades on the American circuit.

One of the first to appear on stage was Weekend, who immediately caught the attention of viewers for his striking look: a suit in red and black tones that he wore with his head bandaged and scarred.

For fans of the rapper, the detail was no surprise: it is one of the artistic concepts behind his latest album, After hours, one of the busiest titles this season.

In social networks, the beaten version of The Weeknd did not go unnoticed, even motivating messages of concern and confusion about his state of health.

At the ceremony, the rapper repeated the outfit to personally receive the award for Best Soul / R & B Album, where it was imposed on the works of Doja Cat and Summer Walker.

For tonight the presentations of artists such as Bad Bunny, Billie Eilish, BTS and Dua Lipa, in the middle of an appointment that this year had to adapt to the covid-19 health crisis.
