It's (not) hard to believe that Taylor Swift managed to score the most nominations with her super smash hit "1989," with six nominations. However, Ed Sheeran and The Weeknd are right behind her with both five nominations each. Rounding out the bunch is Sam Hunt, Nicki Minaj, Sam Smith, Meghan Trainor and Walk the Moon trail with three nominations each.
Along with those being nominated, the performer line-up is equally impressive. You've got amazing collaborations like Demi Lovato and Alanis Morissette, and Meghan Trainor and Charlie Puth, along with highly anticipated performanes by Walk the Moon, The Weeknd, Carrie Underwood, Pentatonix, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, Nick Jonas, Coldplay, Justin Bieber, and of course, a performance by the host herself, Jennifer Lopez!
Check out the full list on nominees below and don't forget to tune in LIVE on 8 p.m. on ABC!
