Οι υποψηφιότητες για τα MTV VMA 2017 έγιναν γνωστές πριν από μερικές ώρες. Στη φετινή απονομή τις περισσότερες υποψηφιότητες διεκδικούν ο Kendrick Lamar με 8, η Katy Perry και ο The Weeknd με 5 αντίστοιχα.
Η φαντασμαγορική βραδιά θα λάβει χώρα στο The Forum στο Inglewood της California στις 27 Αυγούστου και αξίζει να αναφέρουμε πως είναι η δεύτερη φορά που το “The Forum” φιλοξενεί το θεσμό των βραβείων.
Στις φετινές υποψηφιότητες θα δείτε μία μικρή αλλά σημαντική διαφορά, οι δύο βασικές κατηγορίες “Best Female Video” και “Best Male Video” έχουν αντικατασταθεί από τη κατηγορία “Artist of the Year“. Ακόμα έχει προστεθέι η κατηγορία “Best Fight Against the System” για τα μουσικά video με ένα σημαντικό σκοπό.
