Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake, ‘Glee’ Lead 2014 People’s Choice Awards Nominations
Many awards shows are based on the votes of the people, but only one awards show is called the People’s Choice Awards. The nominees for the 2014 PCAs have been announced, and the music categories are led by Katy Perry and Justin Timberlake, who both notched five nominations including Favorite Pop Artist and Favorite Song. Demi Lovato, Bruno Mars and One Direction are next up with four nods apiece. I’d also like to point out that the Favorite Male Artist category is absolutely bogus. How are Blake Shelton and Michael Bublé included, but there’s not a single spot reserved for any of the three titans Jay Z, Kanye West or Drake?
For the television categories, Glee and its cast leads all shows with eight nominations, including Favorite Network Comedy and Favorite Onscreen Chemistry. The People’s Choice Awards take place January 8 on CBS, and voting is open until December 5. Check out the list of music categories below, and head to the official site to vote on the full list of nominees.
