2019 American Music Awards

20:30 - 1Magic (DStv 103)

The glitzy award season is in full swing, and next up is the 47th Annual American Music Awards (AMAs). Considered the biggest fan-based award show, the AMAs are awarded based on Billboard ratings, social interactions and radio airplay. Musical powerhouse Taylor Swift will perform and also accept the award for Artist of the Decade, while rapper Post Malone, Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish and Lil Nas X lead the nominations.

Fleabag

Amazon Prime

Fleabag is a hilarious and poignant window into the mind of a dry-witted, sexual, angry, grief-riddled woman, as she hurls herself at modern living in London. Award-winning playwright Phoebe Waller-Bridge writes and stars as Fleabag, an unfiltered woman trying to heal, while rejecting anyone who tries to help her and keeping up her bravado all along.
