Post Malone, Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish dominate American Music Awards nominations

The nominations for the 2019 American Music Awards are in, and this year’s fan-voted awards show could be a historic one.
Drake, Ariana Grande, Halsey, Post Malone, and Taylor Swift are all nominated for the AMAs’ top prize, Artist of the Year. Swift currently holds the record in the category, having won it four times previously.
Malone is the most nominated artist this year, with seven total nominations, including Artist of the Year, Collaboration of the Year and Favorite Male Artist — Pop/Rock. Grande and first-time AMA nominee Billie Eilish each received six nods, including Favorite Music Video, Favorite Social Artist, Favorite Female Artist — Pop/Rock and Favorite Album — Pop/Rock. Lil Nas X and Taylor Swift are tied with five nominations each, followed by Billy Ray Cyrus, Khalid, and Ella Mai, with four each.

It could be a night to remember for Swift, who could surpass Michael Jackson’s record for most AMA wins of all time, 24, should she win in two of the five categories she’s nominated in. Swift and Alabama are currently tied with 23 all-time AMA wins.
The AMAs will be broadcast live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday, Nov. 24, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
