The Golden Globes and Oscars aren't until January and February, respectively, but you'd be forgiven for thinking we're in the middle of award season right now. Just this month, we've already witnessed all the stellar red carpet looks at the People's Choice Awards and the Country Music Association Awards, and now we're excited about tonight's American Music Awards.
So who's up for an award tonight? Well, a bunch of heavy hitters. Taylor Swift, Drake, Ariana Grande, Halsey, and Post Malone are all in the running for the coveted Artist of the Year award. As for rising stars, Lizzo, Billie Eilish, Lil Nas X, Luke Combs, and Ella Mai are up for the New Artist of the Year honor. The list of performers is similarly stacked and includes Selena Gomez, Camila Cabello, and Christina Aguilera, among others.
