Pitbull did not only host the 2013 American Music Awards, he also performed his new single Timber with Kesha for the first time.

The two, who toured together over the summer, brought the party right when they hit the stage at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, Calif. on Sunday.

Kesha, who showed off her new colorful hairdo, wore shorts and cowboy boots as Pitbull sported a cream tuxedo jacket with black lapel. They were accompanied by many female dancers, as well.

Kesha expressed her excitement about the performance prior to the award show when she tweeted, "So excited for the AMAs tomorrow !!! first time I'll be performing TIMBER !!!! evverrrrr."

Pitbull recently explained his reason for collaborating with Kesha on his new song, which will appear on the re-release of Global Warming due out on Monday.

"I was on tour with her and I got a chance to see that she is actually very crazy, fun, sexy, cool, wild and all of the above," he told OnTheRedCarpet.com. "So that's why I did a record with her and we're gonna be at the AMAs."

Mr. Worldwide also spoke about being asked to host the award show for the first time ever.

"They've given me an amazing opportunity and say, 'hey, why is he the perfect host?' I'm not the perfect host, I think that's what makes me the perfect host," he told the website.

Pitbull also released the song's video on Facebook right after the performance.
