Justin Bieber gave us quite a few hits this year, and the MTV Europe Music Awards voters were taking notice. The list of nominations for this awards ceremony is out, and the Canadian hitmaker is leading the way with a total of eight nods.
Bieber is in the running for some of the biggest awards of the night, including Best Artist and Best Song, where he’s been nominated with two tracks—“Peaches” and “Stay” featuring The Kid Laroi. He’s also in the running for the best video, best collaboration, best pop, best Canadian act, and biggest fans.
Bieber will have to face some tough competition at this award show because he’s closely followed by Doja Cat and Lil Nas X with six nominations each. Olivia Rodrigo, Ed Sheeran, and The Kid Laroi are right behind with nods in five separate categories.
The 2021 MTV Europe Music Awards will take place on November 14th in Budapest, Hungary, and the host is yet to be announced.
