Lady Gaga Leads 2011 MTV EMA Nominations

With the MTV Video Music Awards behind us, it's time to focus on the network's 2011 Europe Music Awards, which feature Lady Gaga as the top nominee. Gaga is a contender in six categories, while Bruno Mars and Katy Perry scored four nods each.

Gaga's 'Born This Way' will compete for Best Song, along with Perry's Firework,' Mars' 'Grenade,' Adele's 'Rolling in the Deep,' and Jennifer Lopez's 'On the Floor.' For Best Live Act, Gaga and Perry will contend with three rock powerhouses: Coldplay, Foo Fighters and Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Adele, Justin Bieber, and Thirty Seconds To Mars each snagged three nominations. Bieber is up for Best Male, Best Pop, and an award called Biggest Fans. The artists who will pit their fanbases against the army of Beliebers in that last category include Adele, Gaga, Paramore, and Bieber's own girlfriend, Selena Gomez. We hope that going head-to-head won't cause too much drama in the Bieber-Gomez relationship!
