The American Music Awards are currently taking place in Los Angeles’ Microsoft Theatre.

So far, Billie Eilish has been the big early winner of the night, taking home the gongs for Best New Artist, and Favourite Artist for Alternative/Rock — oh, and she casually set the stage on fire during her performance of ‘all the good girls go to hell‘.

She even tried to win the red carpet by wearing what appeared to be a bejewelled bee keeper helmet on the red carpet — although she was eclipsed by Lizzo, who stayed away from helmets, but instead brought along the world’s tiniest bag. Custom Valentino, no less.

“It’s a Valentino bag, it’s custom — there’s only three in the world,” Lizzo told the bemused red carpet hosts. “I’ve got tampons in here, a flask of tequila, some condoms.”

See it a little closer:

Predictably, the internet has fallen in love with the tiny ass purse — it may hold our hopes and dreams, it may hold the contents of our bank accounts, it may hold all the support given to female musicians by their male counterparts. Whatever it holds, we love the tiny purse.
