Young singer Miley Cyrus, best known for her role as Hannah Montana, just received three Teen Choice nominations. The award show takes place on August 9 in Los Angeles and will be hosted by Katy Perry.
Billy Ray Cyrus’ daughter is nominated for Choice Movie Actress: Drama for the film The Last Song and in the Choice Movie: Dance category for her moves in the same film.
Cyrus is also nominated in the Choice Female Artist category. She faces some stiff competition from Ke$ha, Taylor Swift, Shakira and Lady Gaga. Gaga is assuredly the favourite to win in this category.
Winners at this award gala receive a trophy in the shape of a surfboard. Young Canadian Justin Bieber will try to take one home in the category of Choice Male Artist. He will go one-on-one against his mentor and friend, Usher. The other men in the group are new rap sensation (and fellow Canadian) Drake, Jason Derulo and Adam Lambert.
Nominees up for the Choice Music: Group award include Black Eyed Peas, Selena Gomez & The Scene, New Boyz, Young Money and the cast from the television series Glee.
The Teen Choice Awards honour the most popular actors, artists and even athletes as voted on by teenagers.
