Adele Leads American Music Awards Nominations


In the first development of many expected awards-show sweeps this year, Adele led the nominations of the 39th annual American Music Awards, which were announced in Los Angeles on Tuesday (Oct. 11).

The singer-songwriter -- whose sophomore album, "21," is the biggest-selling album of the year -- was nominated for artist of the year, favorite female artist, favorite album and favorite adult contemporary artist. Adele will compete against Lil Wayne, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry and Lady Gaga for artist of the year.

Swift, Gaga, Lil Wayne, Perry, Rihanna and the Band Perry scored three nominations apiece. Pitbull and Nicki Minaj, who announced the nominations together this morning, each earned two nods, as did Beyonce, Bruno Mars, Chris Brown, LMFAO, Kanye West and Jason Aldean.

Perry and Pitbull are the first confirmed performers at the AMAs, which will be held Nov. 20 at the Nokia Theatre in L.A. and air live on ABC.
