The Weeknd’s Many Billboard Music Award Nominations

The Billboard Music Awards are going to be hosted by Ludacris and Ciara on May 22 and we now know who they will be talking about specifically for each award. The show, which will be occurring in Las Vegas at T-Mobile Arena, is sure to be an exciting one with every star in attendance.

The leader in terms of nominations is The Weeknd and it’s not even close. We often write about his dominance in the music industry, but his 19 nominations in 16 categories does all the talking for us.

Some of his biggest nominations include Top Artist, Top Male Artist, Top Billboard 200 Artist, Top R&B Artist, and Top Billboard 200 Album among many others.

Others with many nominations include Justin Bieber (12), Drake (11), and Adele (8). While every star will be in attendance on May 22 at the Billboard Music Awards, we wouldn’t be shocked at all if The Weeknd is the star that shines the brightest by the end of the night.
