When the O Music Awards were first announced, organizers promised that the show would be anything but traditional. And if the first wave of nominees — featuring categories like Favorite Animated GIF and Favorite F--- Yeah Tumblr — didn't convince you, well, then perhaps the second round will.
On Monday, the OMAs not only added fan-submitted nominees to existing categories, but they also went ahead and unveiled a brand-new one too— and, from the look of things, Kanye West is going to win at least once.
That's because Best Tweet (All Kanye West) has been added to the show, a category comprised of — if you couldn't guess — nothing but West's greatest 140-character-or-less missives. West joins an ever-growing list of OMA nominees, like 30 Seconds to Mars, whose ultra-explicit "Hurricane" clip was added to the NSFW Music Video category at the request of their fans; Adam Lambert, who was added to the Must-Follow Artist On Twitter field (fittingly, West is also in the running here); and Muse and Trey Songz, both of whom were added to the Fan Army FTW category after being nominated by their fans.
Fan-submitted noms have also been added to categories like Most Viral Dance, Innovative Music Video, Best Independent Music Blog and Best Fan Forum. To take a look at the full field of OMA categories — and vote for your favorites — head over to the O Music Awards website. You can follow the top vote-getters in each category on a real-time leader board in the weeks leading up to the premiere of the OMAs on Thursday, April 27, at 11 p.m. ET on OMusicAwards.com.
