ABC/Mark LevineThe nominees for this year’s People’s Choice Awards have been revealed.
There are 43 categories in all, and in addition to odd ones like Animal Star of the Year, Bingeworthy Show of 2018, and Competition Contestant of 2018, there are plenty of country stars who’ve received nods.
Keith Urban and Thomas Rhett compete for the mainstream Male Artist of the Year honor against the likes of pop stars Ed Sheeran and Bruno Mars, while Carrie Underwood vies for Female Artist against Taylor Swift and Beyoncé.
Country makes an especially strong showing in the Group category, with Dan + Shay, Sugarland and Little Big Town in the running with Maroon 5. Kenny Chesney and Shania Twain go up against Beyoncé & Jay Z and Justin Timberlake for Concert Tour of 2018.
Luke Bryan, Jason Aldean, Kelsea Ballerini, Chris Stapleton, Sam Hunt, Blake Shelton, and Florida Georgia Line also grab nominations for Country Artist, the show’s sole dedicated country category.
The People’s Choice Awards will air November 11 on E!, the first time the PCAs will air on the cable channel. They previously aired on CBS.
