Rihanna and Drake have a lot to celebrate. The superstars lead the nominations for the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards, it was announced today.
The frequent collaborators earn five nominations including Video of the Year at this year’s show. Rihanna’s “We Found Love” will compete against Drake’s “Take Care,” for which she is a featured guest (MTV only gives the nomination to the lead artist in the category).
The pop princess’ Melina-directed video for “We Found Love” will also vie for Best Female Video and Best Pop Video, while the dance-heavy “Where Have You Been” scores Best Choreography and Best Visual Effects nods.
Drake’s wild Bar Mitzvah re-enactment in the video for “HYFR” garners him a nomination for Best Hip-Hop Video, while the Rihanna-assisted “Take Care” picks up Best Male Video, Best Art Direction, and Best Cinematography.
RiRi’s pal Katy Perry finishes with four nods, while Beyoncé, Frank Ocean, M.I.A., The Throne, and Coldplay trail with three nominations apiece.
The 2012 MTV VMAs will air live on September 6 at 8 p.m. EST from the Staples Center in Los Angeles, with performances from Alicia Keys and One Direction.
