DiscoHeaven23 35,007 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Some people may say, "Omg why is this person nominated. This person got snubbed blah blah blah" Well in fact, nominations for Billboard Music Awards are based on actual Billboard data. The nominees in each category are nominated because they were the top in their categories.. A statement on it from Billboard: Billboard Music Awards nominees are based on key fan interactions with music, including album and digital song sales, streaming, radio airplay, touring and social engagement. These measurements are tracked year-round by Billboard and its data partners, including Nielsen Music and Next Big Sound. The awards are based on the reporting period of April 8, 2017 through March 31, 2018. So there you go. It's kinda interesting too, cuz it shows the top artists in each category in the past year. So let's take top Female artist. The nominees are: Camila Cabello Cardi B Halsey Demi Lovato Taylor Swift These 5 females were the top 5 females in the past year (they're not in any order). you cannot argue this, because it's based on data. So there you have it Source: https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/bbma/8343598/billboard-music-awards-2018-nominations-list Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the fun of awards shows is that you don't know who is going to win. Billboard Awards should just be a ceremony honoring the top sellers and without "nominees."
