Is this the American Music Awards or the Australian Music Awards?
Iggy Azalea, who was born Down Under, is the lead nominee at Sunday’s show. She will compete for top awards such as artist, new artist and single of the year for her smash hit, “Fancy.”
The 24-year-old will also perform – she will take the stage with Jennifer Lopez for “Booty” – when the show airs live from Nokia Theatre L.A. Live.
Another Australian act, the boy band 5 Seconds of Summer, will battle Azalea for new artist of the year, capping out a successful year with a sold-out tour and top-selling debut album.
Pitbull will host the 42nd annual AMAs, airing on ABC, and he will also perform. The night will feature a slew of A-Listers onstage: Taylor Swift, who will open the show, Garth Brooks, Fergie, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, Imagine Dragons, Lil Wayne, Lorde, Nicki Minaj, One Direction and Sam Smith.
