MTV has announced the nominations for the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards on Tuesday, with Taylor Swift leads the nominees with 10 nominations (including Artist of the Year and Video of the Year for “Fortnight” featuring Post Malone).

Post Malone closely followed Swift with nine nominations, while Ariana Grande, Eminem and Sabrina Carpenter each earned six nominations, Megan Thee Stallion and SZA earned five nods each, and LISA, Olivia Rodrigo and Teddy Swims earned four nods. Carpenter and Swims are among the 29 first-time nominees, which also includes Benson Boone, Tyla, Chappell Roan, Jelly Roll, Rauw Alejandro, Sexxy Red, Victoria Monét and more.

If Swift were to win Video of the Year, she would break her own record to become the only artist to ever win the award three times in a row and five times in the category.

The MTV VMAs will take place Sept. 10 at UBS Arena in New York and air at 8 p.m. EDT on MTV. Beginning Tuesday, fans can vote for their favorites in 15 categories at vote.mtv.com through Friday, Aug. 30.
