Minaj launched the 39th annual fan-favorite ceremony with a performance featuring tethered back-up dancers, stilt-walking robots and super-producer David Guetta emerging from behind a pillar of speakers. The pink-haired singer - wearing a pair
of speakers on her much-talked about posterior - kicked off the show with "Turn Me On" before launching into "Super Bass." She returned to the stage shortly after, to accept the award for favorite rap/hip-hop artist.
"Oh my god, you guys, there's so much love in this room," Minaj said. She also thanked Taylor Swift, a big fan of her "Super Bass" hit.
Justin Bieber, The Band Perry and Chris Brown also took to the stage early in the ceremony. Other performers include Drake, Jennifer Lopez, Kelly Clarkson and Christina Aguilera.
