Among the 27-year-old singer's potential haul is the coveted Best Artist accolade, which will see him go up against the likes of Doja Cat, who has six nominations.

Justin will also battle it out with Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga, Lil Nas X, and The Weeknd for the prize at the ceremony, which will take place at the Papp László Budapest Sportaréna in Hungary, which will broadcast live on MTV UK on Sunday 14th November at 8pm.

The 'Baby' hitmaker will also face off against Ed and Doja Cat in the Best Pop category - which also includes BTS, Dua Lipa, and Olivia Rodrigo - and he has two nods for Best Song.

Justin has a double category nod for his 'Peaches' track, featuring Daniel Caesar and Giveon, and his and The Kid LAROI's 'STAY'.

But he will face stiff competition from Doja Cat once again, who will be out to win the award with tune 'Kiss Me More'.

Ed's 'Bad Habits' also has a nod, as does Olivia's 'Drivers License', and Lil Nas X's 'MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)'.

Elsewhere, Coldplay, Foo Fighters, Imagine Dragons, Kings Of Leon, Måneskin, and The Killers are up for the Best Rock gong, and one of either Calvin Harris, David Guetta, Joel Corry, Marshmello, Skrillex, and Swedish House Mafia will no doubt be buzzing if they scoop the Best Electronic accolade.

One category with many a beady eye on the winner will no doubt be whoever picks up the Biggest Fans prize.

The category features nods for the supporters of Ariana Grande, BLACKPINK, BTS, Justin, Lady Gaga, and Taylor Swift.
