LOS ANGELES: Pop superstar Taylor Swift leads this year’s American Music Awards (AMAs) with eight nominations, including artist of the year, song of the year for “The Fate of Ophelia”, and album of the year for “The Life of a Showgirl,” organizers announced on Tuesday.

Swift, who holds the record for the most AMA wins in history, received six nominations in the previous year’s awards.

Her globally successful Eras Tour, launched in 2023, became the highest-grossing concert tour of all time. She has also been widely recognized for re-recording her early albums, a move credited with inspiring artists to seek greater control over their music rights.

Close behind, Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Dean, SOMBR, and Morgan Wallen each secured seven nominations. Carpenter is also competing for artist of the year, while Dean and SOMBR received their first-ever AMA nominations, including new artist of the year.

Among other notable contenders are the vocalists behind Netflix’s Oscar-winning animated musical “KPop Demon Hunters.” EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami earned nominations for “Golden,” a hit track nominated for song of the year, best vocal performance, and best pop song.

A win in any category would mark the group’s first American Music Award.

Winners will be decided by fans and announced at a live ceremony hosted by actress and singer Queen Latifah in Las Vegas on May 25. The show will air live on CBS and Paramount+.

Nominations were determined based on Billboard chart performance, streaming figures, album sales, radio airplay, and social media engagement.

Actress Trisha Krishnan receives bomb threat at residence

Chennai: A bomb threat targeting the residence of South Indian actress Trisha Krishnan triggered alarm in the entertainment industry, but was later declared a hoax by authorities.

According to media reports, an email was received at the Tamil Nadu DGP control room claiming that explosive devices had been planted at the actress’s home as well as at the residence of the Bangladeshi Deputy High Commissioner.

Police and bomb disposal squads immediately cordoned off both locations and conducted thorough searches. However, no explosives were found, and the threat was deemed false.

Officials noted a recent surge in fake emails targeting high-profile individuals, though all such alerts have so far turned out to be baseless. Investigations into the latest incident are ongoing.

The 43-year-old actress is among the highest-paid stars in South India. Similar hoax threats have previously targeted leading actors such as Rajinikanth and Dhanush.

Separately, Trisha has also been in the spotlight after videos of her attending a wedding with actor Vijay went viral on social media, sparking speculation about their relationship.

Some reports have even claimed that Vijay’s wife Sangeeta Sornalingam has filed for divorce, allegedly linked to these rumors, though no official confirmation has been made so far.
