Ava Max për herë të parë në ‘VMA’, në listë edhe Bebe Rexha me Dua Lipën

Ndonëse ky është një zhvillim i rëndësishëm për karrieren e 25 vjeçares, gara në këtë kategori paraqitet e fortë për shqiptaren, pasi favoritë konsiderohen Billie Eilish apo Lil Nas X.

Në listën e VMA janë përfshirë edhe shqiptaret Bebe Rexha dhe Dua Lipa.

Të dyja janë pjesë e kategorisë ‘Best Dance’, me Beben e nominuar për dy këngë: “Call You Mine” dhe “Say My Name”, ndërsa Dua me “Electricity”.

Rita Ora nuk është bërë pjesë e VMA, ndonëse ka publikuar këngë të shumta përgjatë vitit të kaluar, të cilat janë vlerësuar nga kritikët.

Lista e VMA dominohet këtë vit nga Ariana Grande dhe Taylor Swift me nga 10 nominime secila, të ndjekura nga Billie Eilish dhe Lil Nas X me nëntë dhe tetë nominime.
