Ieri 7 aprile sono stati annunciati gli artisti candidati ai Billboard Music Awards 2015: Meghan Trainor si è aggiudicata ben nove nomination – tra cui Top New Artist, Top Female Artist e Top Hot 100 Song con All About That Bass. Tra gli artisti con più candidature anche Pharrell Williams, John Legend, i One Direction e Chris Brown.

Le nomination sono state determinate sulla base di numerosi parametri, tracciati da Billboard e dai suoi partner nel periodo compreso tra il 10 marzo 2014 e l’8 marzo 2015: le vendite degli album e dei singoli digitali, l’airplay radiofonico, gli streaming, i tour e le interazioni sui social media.
