Aussies Tame Impala score 2020 MTV EMA nod as Lady Gaga, BTS and Justin Bieber lead nominations

LOS ANGELES (Variety.com) - Lady Gaga has garnered seven nominations for the 2020 MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs), followed by BTS and Justin Bieber, each of whom received five nods.

Aussie act Tame Impala have scored one nomination in the Best Rock category, going up against Coldplay, Green Day, Liam Gallagher, Pearl Jam and The Killers.

The global music awards show also added new categories Best Latin, Video for Good and Best Virtual Live.

Gaga's nominations include Best Artist, Best Pop and Best Video for her collaboration with Ariana Grande on 'Rain On Me', which also secured nominations for Best Song and Best Collaboration. (Gaga won five VMAs on the US edition, which aired August 30).

BTS and Bieber's nods include Biggest Fans and Best Pop, which is sure to provide a contentious outcome as Army and Beliebers go head-to-head.

The EMAs will also bring back local honours, with nominations that include Lady Gaga, Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B for best US act; Justin Bieber and The Weeknd for best Canadian act and Dua Lipa for best UK and Ireland act, among others.

DaBaby, Doja Cat and YUNGBLUD, among others, will vie for Best New Artist, while Chloe x Halle, BLACKPINK and Little Mix will be among those competing for Best Group.

The two-hour-long show, which is in its 27th year, will air globally on MTV internationally November 8. Fans can cast their votes until November 2.

Details on performers and presenters will be announced soon.
