Lunedì 8 settembre presso la UBS Arena di Elmont, a New York, andranno in scena gli MTV Video Music Awards 2025, che quest’anno – per la prima volta – verranno trasmessi in prima serata anche su CBS (oltre che su MTV e su tutti i consueti canali streaming).
Ma… chi sono i candidati? L’artista con più candidature è, senza alcun dubbio, Lady Gaga, che riconquista il titolo per la terza volta con ben 12 candidature, dopo le 13 del 2010 e le 9 del 2020.
A “metterle i bastoni tra le ruote” è Bruno Mars con le sue 11 candidature, ottenute sia grazie al duetto con la cantante di Mayhem che per la hit APT. con ROSÉ. Chiude, infine, il podio Kendrick Lamar con le sue 10 nominations.
Seguono: Sabrina Carpenter e ROSÉ (8), Ariana Grande e The Weeknd (7), Billie Eilish (6), Charli CXC (5), Bad Bunny, Doechii, Jelly Roll, Ed Sheeran, Tate McRae e Miley Cyrus (4) e il nostro Damiano David (2), che fa il suo esordio da solista agli MTV VMAs 2025 con Next Summer per la categoria MTV PUSH Performance Of The Year e con Funny Little Stories per la sezione Best Long Form Video.
MTV VMAS 2025: NOVITà E VOTAZIONI
