INITIAL PERFORMERS ANNOUNCED FOR Ҳ005 AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDSӼ/b>

Mariah Carey, Kenny Chesney and Rob Thomas Set

The initial performers set to appear on the Ҳ005 American Music Awards, special, which airs on ABC-TV, Tuesday, November 22, 2005, are not only all multi-platinum sellers, but they are also all nominees for this yearճ awards.

Scheduled to perform thus far are: International superstar Mariah Carey, Country Musicճ reigning Entertainer of the Year, Kenny Chesney, and the driving force of matchbox twenty and acclaimed solo artist Rob Thomas.

A previous winner of eight American Music Awards and this yearճ leading nominee with four, Mariah Carey is simply the #1 most successful female songwriter and performer of all time. She recently added to her long list of achievements when she became the only woman in history to hold the two top spots on the hit singles chart simultaneously. Also a previous American Music Award winner, Kenny Chesney, has sold over 25 million records. His current album, the self-written Be As You Are, debuted at #1 without the benefit of a single or a tour -- although his ensuing summer tour marked the third year in a row where the high energy performer played to over a million people. Rob Thomas is one of the most distinctive vocalists and accomplished songwriters in contemporary music. He made chart history earlier this year when his first solo album, Something To Be, entered the charts at #1, making him the first male artist from a rock or pop group to debut at the top of the charts with their initial solo album.

Additional artists will be added to the line up and announced at a later date. Hosting the 33^rd annual special is Cedric The Entertainer.

A total of 21 publicly voted awards will be presented on this year's American Music Awards in eight areas of music -- Pop/Rock, Country, Soul/Rhythm & Blues, Rap/Hip-Hop, Latin Music, Adult Contemporary Music, Alternative Music and Contemporary Inspirational Music.

The live special, which emanates from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, is a presentation of dick clark

productions, inc., with Allen Shapiro serving as Executive Producer. Larry Klein produces the telecast and Jeff Margolis directs.
