ONE BEER TOO MANY

At the American Music Awards, HITS Editor in Chief Lenny Beer wandered into a restricted area, where—before security lured him back behind the barricade with a tasty fish—he infiltrated this photo op with Darkroom chief Justin Lubliner, Spotify Head of Music Strategy Jeremy Erlich and Billie Eilish manager Danny Rukasin. The three biz hitters were thrilled by Billie's mega-look and trophy wins and slightly unsettled by Lenny's aggressive pointing. Later, Jeremy's mustache received a three-picture deal from Vivid Video.
