The nominees for the iHeartRadio Music Awards are in, and it looks like it’s going to be a showdown between Rihanna and Justin Timberlake.
Rih-Rih’s nominated seven times in five categories (both “Stay” and “The Monster” with Eminem are up for Song of the Year and Best collaboration), while JT’s a contender in four categories — with “Suit & Tie” and “Holy Grail” both up for Best Collaboration. Also leading the nominees are Imagine Dragons, who are up for four awards, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, with three nods, and Lorde, with two.
And it’s up to you who wins: voting is open at their website until April 25. The iHeartRadio Music Awards air live on NBC on May 1. And if the show is anything like it was last year — to refresh your memory, Miley Cyrus cried onstage — we’re in for something crazy.
