I think Rag'n'Bone Man will be her only real competition for Best New but unfortunately I don't think she has the fanbase to win any of the other awards sad.gif I have voted for her in all three though! cheer.gif

Unfortunately she won't be able to appear due to her supporting Coldplay on the Latin American leg of their tour but hopefully they'll play a pre-recorded performance on the televised show.

Also I can't believe "New Rules" isn't nominated for Best Video OR Song?! Talk about a snub.

It gets even worse, they nominated Eminem for multiple awards and he's released nothing over the past year 😂😂

Screaming at poor brave Louis laugh.gif Rihanna being snubbed for best look over Harry Styles who’s always had a ferret face for me though...

Proud of Dua ❤️

Random but I guess he has the fans from One D voting in droves. I'm sure I heard someone on the radio yesterday say that Stormzy had won!

Looking at the list of winners now, Dua is one of the few artists who deserved to win the category they were nominated for.

Shawn Mendes beating Ariana and Taylor for Biggest Fans is a joke, same for how There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back beat Despacito, Shape of You, Wild Thoughts, and Rockabye. I mean good on him but that just doesn't seem right laugh.gif

Eminem won Best Hip Hop despite only just releasing new material less than a week before the awards, beating the likes of Drake, Post Malone, and Kendrick Lamar.

Coldplay won Best Rock (over The Killers, Foo Fighters, Royal Blood, U2) despite not really being a rock band anymore (Something Just Like This and Hymn For The Weekend for example) yet lost Best Live to Ed Sheeran...

Compared to 80% of the other awards, Dua did pretty well winning 1/3 nominations! heart.gif
