HOLLYWOOD — Post Malone will carry a leading 16 nominations into Wednesday night’s presentation of the Billboard Music Awards, which will be broadcast from the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.

Lil Nas X has 13 nominations, while Khalid and Grammy sensation Billie Eilish both have 12. Post Malone, Eilish and Khalid are all nominated for top artist, along with the Jonas Brothers and Taylor Swift.

Eilish, who swept all of the top Grammy Awards earlier this year, is also nominated for top new artist, along with Lil Nas X, DaBaby, Lizzo and Roddy Ricch.

Post Malone, Khalid and Lil Nas X are also all nominated for top male artist, as are DaBaby and Ed Sheeran. Eilish and Swift are both nominated for top female artist, along with Ariana Grande, Halsey and Lizzo.

BTS, Dan + Shay, Jonas Brothers, Maroon 5 and Panic! At the Disco will be competing for top duo/group honors.

Lizzo has 11 nominations overall, while Kanye West has nine, Swift has 6 and Justin Bieber has four.

The awards ceremony, hosted by Kelly Clarkson for the third time, will be held at The Dolby Theatre in Hollywood and broadcast on NBC. The ceremony will be held at 5 p.m. and broadcast live on the East Coast but tape-delayed on the West Coast, airing at 8 p.m. Pacific time.

The show was originally scheduled for April 29 but postponed due to the coronavirus. With the pandemic continuing, the show will have to move forward without a live audience, and it was unclear exactly how many performers/presenters might be in the building and how many will appear remotely.

Clarkson is scheduled to perform as the show’s opening act, singing Whitney Houston’s “Higher Love” with Pentatonix and Sheila E.

Others expected to perform during the show are John Legend, Alicia Keys, BTS, Kane Brown, Doja Cat, En Vogue, Khalid, Bad Bunny, Brandy, Ty Dolla $ign, Demi Lovato, Sia and Post Malone.

Garth Brooks, who will receive the ICON Award during the show, is also expected to perform. Rapper Killer Mike is scheduled to receive the inaugural Billboard Change Maker Award in honor of his social-justice activism.

Billboard Music Awards nominees and winners are based on key fan interactions with music, including album and digital song sales, streaming, radio airplay, touring and social engagement, tracked by Billboard and its data partners.

The awards are based on the chart period of March 23, 2019, through March 14, 2020.
