Aug. 19 (UPI) — Nominees were announced for the 22nd annual Premios Juventud, or Youth Awards, Tuesday, with Bad Bunny and Danny Ocean leading the pack with six nominations each.
The awards show will take place Sept. 25 in Panama City, Panama, marking the first time the ceremony is held outside of the United States. Premios Juventud celebrates Spanish-speaking celebrities who represent “the diverse interests of today’s youth in music, television, social media, streaming and pop culture.”
Bad Bunny and Danny Ocean each have six nominations, followed by Anitta, Beéle, Carín León, Emilia, Myke Towers, Netón Vega and Peso Pluma with five nominations each.
The theme of this year’s show is “evolving to the rhythm of music,” with new categories including Best Alternative Mexican Music Song, Best Pop/Rhythmic Song and AfrobeatLatino of the Year.
The winners in each category will be chosen by popular vote at premiosjuventud.com through Sept. 1.
