Cine conduce în topul nominalizărilor MTV VMA 2019

Surprinzător sau nu, Taylor Swift și Ariana Grande sunt starurile ce domină premiile MTV Video Music, fiecare având câte 10 nominalizări. Taylor se evidențiează anul acesta grație videoclipului ”You Need To Calm Down” și colaborării cu Brandon Urie pentru piesa “ME!”, în vreme ce Ariana a câștigat cele 10 nominalizări mulțumită succesului piesei și videoclipului “thank u, next” și a pieselor “Rule the World”, “God is a Woman” și “7 Rings”.

Billie Eilish nu se află nici ea prea departe. Artista-fenomen de doar 17 ani a fost nominalizată la 9 dintre categorii, având cu o nominalizare mai mult decât Lil Nas X.

Shawn Mendes se numără și el printre cei mai apreciați artiști ai acestei gale (5 nominalizări), împreună cu frumoasa sa colaboratoare, Camila Cabello (4 nominalizări), și al lor hit, ”Senorita”.

Noile categorii MTV VMA 2019

O noutate privind gala din 2019 o constituie adăugarea a două noi categorii – Best K-Pop și Video for Good. În categoria K-Pop îi regăsim, desigur, pe BTS și BLACKPINK, grupuri ce au reușit să acapareze topurile din America, în vreme ce la Video for Good se înscriu artiști Halsey, The Killers și Taylor Swift.

Prestigiosul MTV Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award îi va fi acordat anul acesta lui Kary Perry. În anii anteriori, acest trofeu a fost înmânat unor artiști precum Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna și Beyonce.

Ceremonia de decernare a premiilor MTV VMA va avea loc pe 26 august la Prudential Center in Newar din New York și va fi prezentată de actorul, comediantul și autorul Sebastian Maniscalco.
