27th Annual American Music Awards

Britney Spears was hotter than ever. In fact, that year, Forbes even named her the world’s most powerful celebrity. And we’d be hard-pressed to disagree. Britney was simply everywhere, including on the big screen. Crossroads, her first and only feature film, was released that February. And although the film was a critical bomb, it proved to be a commercial success, grossing over $57 million worldwide.
