The AMAs will be hosted on November 20th, at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. The show is one of the most viewed music awards programs on television. Last year, the show had over 46 million interactions on social.

The AMAs are determined entirely by fan interaction, with the nominees selected due to Billbord charts, streaming, sales, and radio airplay, intended to reflect the music that was most listened over the course of the year in the country.

Other figures that received several nominations include Adele, The Weeknd, and Harry Styles, with five nods each. In the case of Latinos, fan favorites like Rosalia, Anitta, J Balvin and more earned nominations, even if they were all restrained within Latin categories.
