Clearly attempting to one-up his own firework-filled MTV VMAs performance earlier this fall, The Weeknd took to the streets of Los Angeles (specifically, a viaduct) with thousands of beautiful explosives for tonight’s American Music Awards rendition of “In Your Eyes†and “Save Your Tears,†after winning this year’s Best R&B Album for After Hours.

The performance made us wonder: How much firework smoke is medically advisable for one singer to inhale? Does a limit exist? The same fear goes for The Weeknd’s very special guest, Kenny G, though Kenny does exit the performance early, presumably because he needs to keep those beautiful, saxophone-powering lungs in working order.
