MTV VMAs 2017 - Full Nominations List

The 2017 MTV VMAs are just hours away and JJJ is seriously stoked!

This year, Kendrick Lamar leads this year’s nominations with eight; followed by Katy Perry and The Weeknd with five.

This year, instead of having Best Female Video and Best Male Video as categories, MTV has combined them to form Artist of the Year. This decision followed the MTV Movie & TV Awards, which also featured gender-neutral categories, and it is a huge step forward for inclusivity in awards shows.

Be sure to tune into the 2017 MTV VMAs, hosted by Katy Perry, airing TONIGHT, August 27th live on MTV.
