All you fashion fans are in for a treat because some of the biggest pop stars walked the red carpet at Sunday night's American Music Awards 2019 held in Los Angeles. While the usual suspects (hello Taylor, Lizzo and Selena!) were all unsurprisingly looking fierce, there was also plenty of surprises.

Though we must admit the *real* winner of the AMAs 2019 red carpet was Lizzo's tiny handbag. If you're wondering what she managed to fit in the Valentino accessory, we have the answer for you right here: "@maisonvalentino Bag big enough for my f***s to give..."

Scroll through the gallery below to see all the hottest outfits from last night's red carpet.

Say hello to Lizzo and Lizzo's tiny bag. Lizzo looked gorgeous in her bold orange, ruffled custom Valentino dress, but it was her bag that really stole the show. On the red carpet she was asked what she packed in it and she replied: "I got tampons in here, a flask of tequila, condoms." LOL.
