POST MALONE TOPS BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARD NOMS!

Written by on September 22, 2020

We’re going to another awards show…from home! The 2020 Billboard Music Awards will broadcast live on October 14th at 7pm on NBC. Just like the Emmy Awards, there will be no celebrities sitting in the audience. There will be a host though! Kelly Clarkson returns for the third time to host the Billboard Music Awards, and she’s pretty excited about it!

The nominations are in! The Billboard Music Awards has presented the 2020 list of nominees, which includes Post Malone with 16 nods, Lil Nas X with 13 nominations, and Billie Eilish and Khalid tied with 12 each. Lizzo follows with 11, while Kanye West picked up 9, including four of the five top gospel song nominations.

There could also be some history made. According to Billboard, “Taylor Swift could set a number of records this year in specific categories. She is vying to win artist of the year for a record third time. She previously won in 2013 and 2015. She is also vying to win top Billboard 200 album for a record third time (with Lover, of course, not her more recent Folklore). She’s also hoping to win top female artist and top Billboard 200 artist, each for a record fourth time.” Click here for more exciting historical possibilities!

As far as performances…they haven’t said a whole lot. But you can be sure there will be some virtual performances from a few of your favorite artists, and special guest appearances too. Maybe we’ll even get to see the inside of their houses, via live stream!
