And The Nominees Are.......NME Awards 2010



The shortlist for the Shockwaves NME Awards 2010 were announced last night at The Tabernacle. Dizzee Rascal, Florence + The Machine, Kings Of Leon and La Roux are amongst the nominees.

Jay-Z is up for Best Live Event for his concert at Alexandra Palace (click here for our review), his wife Beyonce is up for Hero Of The Year award, whilst Rihanna and Lady Gaga are up for Hottest Woman award. Gaga is also up for Best Dressed and Worst Dressed awards, Vilain Of The Year award, alongside Simon Cowell and Kanye West, as well as Best Dancefloor filler for her track 'Poker Face'.

The lovely boys from JLS are up for Worst Band - shock? I guess readers of NME find them cheesy?

If you don't find them cheesy, we're running a competition to win a pair of tickets to an exclusive invite-only JLS gig. Enter here
