Katy Perry and The Weeknd are tied with five nominations each, reported Billboard.
The network also announced that it will combine the best female video and best male video categories into a new classification, artist of the year, following the critical acclaim of the 2017 MTV Movie and TV Awards' non-gendered categories.
This year's nominees also include Bruno Mars, Ariana Grande, Harry Styles, Ed Sheeran, Chance the Rapper and Miley Cyrus, among many others.
Fans can vote now for eight VMA categories, including video of the year, artist of the year, best collaboration and more by visiting www.Vma.Mtv.Com.
The MTV Video Music Awards will air live from The Forum in Inglewood, California, on August 27.
