A new edition of the MTV European Music Awards will be held in Manchester on November 10. As usual in recent times, Taylor Swift leads the nominations with 7 nominations.
Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, Charli XCX and Sabrina Carpenter, with 5 nominations each, are next. The new choice of Taylor Swift to lead the nominations is curious, when the criticism of ‘The Tortured Poet’s Department’ has been mixed and her singles are having a limited impact. MTV seems to be recognizing rather the best-selling album of 2024, which is Taylor’s. In fact, Swift missed out on the Song of the Year nomination, and that’s almost the news of all this.
As if to emphasize that the same ones are not always awarded, the organization seems obliged to point out that there are 19 artists nominated for the first time. Among them are Kehlani and Tinashe in the “Best R&B Artist” category, Disclosure and Fred Again… in “Best Electronic Music Artist”, Fontaines DC in “Best Alternative Artist”, The Last Dinner Party in “Best New Artist” and Jimin from BTS in “Best K-Pop Artist.”
On the other hand, Ana Mena, Belén Aguilera, Dani Fernández, Lola Indigo and Mikel Izal can win the “Best Spanish Artist” award this year.
