Le nomination per i VMA (Video Music Awards)

MTV ha annunciato le nomination per l’edizione 2016 dei VMA (Video Music Awards), una cerimonia seguita più che per i premi, per le cose che succedono prima, dopo e attorno alla serata (ricordate il litigio di Nicki Minaj e Taylor Swift dell’anno scorso? E l’esibizione di Miley Cyrus e Robin Thicke del 2013? E il famoso episodio tra Kanye West e Taylor Swift nel 2009?).
La cerimonia di quest’anno sarà il 28 agosto: Beyoncé e Adele hanno ricevuto più nomination di tutti, rispettivamente 11 e 8.
