Post Malone
The 'Take What You Want' rapper has been shortlisted for the prestigious Artist of the Year prize alongside Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Drake and Halsey.
He's also up for Favourite Artist in the Rap/Hip-Hop category, which sees him compete with Cardi B and Drake, and the same accolade for Pop/Rock, which also sees Drake and Khalid in contention.
Plus he's received nominations for Favourite Album (Rap/Hip-Hop) for 'Hollywood's Bleeding' and Collaboration of the Year and Favourite Song for 'Sunflower' featuring Swae Lee from 'Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse'.
Malone has stiff competition in the Collaboration of the Year category, with Lil Nas X's 'Old Town Road', Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper's 'Shallow', Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello's 'Señorita' and Bastille and Marshmello's 'Happier' in the running for the award.
Following closely behind is Billie Eilish and Ariana, who have six nods each, and Taylor and 'Old Town Rapper' Lil Nas X have five apiece.
if Taylor scoops up just one prize on the night, she will break late King of Pop Michael Jackson's record for the most AMA wins of all time, as the 'Thriller' hitmaker has 24 gongs, and the 'You Need To Calm Down' singer currently has 23 trophies to her name.
Meanwhile, K-pop superstars BTS, Sir Elton John, Ed Sheeran, Pink and Ariana Grande will battle it out for Tour of the Year.
The American Music Awards take place at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on November 24.
