Leading the talented pack of nominated artists, theatrical pop performer Lady Gaga has six nominations for the MTV Europe Music Awards to be held in Belfast, Ireland, this year on November 6.
Katy Perry and Bruno Mars are tied with four nods each. Adele, Justin Bieber, and Thirty Seconds to Mars each scored three.
Other artists who made the cut include Foo Fighters, Snoop Dogg, My Chemical Romance, Jennifer Lopez, LMFAO, Jessie J, Beyoncé, Coldplay, Eminem, Arcade Fire, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Far East Movement, Kanye West, Linkin Park, Wiz Khalifa, and Kings of Leon, with two nominations each.
This year, there are two new prizes. First, the ‘Biggest Fans’ award will recognize the artist with the most passionate fan base.
Plus, for the very first time, they’re handing out a ‘Worldwide Act’ EMA. After voters select their favorite local artists, their picks will go head-to-head with other artists from all over the globe to see who will win the title.
