Benson Boone Performs ‘Mystical Magical’ at 2025 AMAs, Nominated for Five Awards

Benson Boone delivered a standout performance of his single "Mystical Magical" at the 2025 American Music Awards, wearing a vibrant purple floral suit custom-made by Dolce & Gabbana and incorporating his signature backflip. Boone, who is nominated for five awards including New Artist of the Year and Song of the Year for "Beautiful Things," has seen a meteoric rise since his debut album "Rollerblades & Fireworks" and his breakout hit. His upcoming second album, "American Heart," set for release on June 20, features "Mystical Magical" and embraces a retro, Americana vibe inspired by Bruce Springsteen. Boone engaged the audience during his AMA performance by walking into the crowd and interacting with fans and celebrities, solidifying his reputation for energetic and heartfelt shows. Despite his rapid success, Boone remains grounded and open to criticism, challenging detractors to offer constructive feedback. Other notable performers at the AMAs included Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani, Gloria Estefan, Lainey Wilson, and Reneé Rapp, with the show hosted by Jennifer Lopez.
