Above are the 2017 NME nominations which see Beyonce and her new album ‘Lemonade’ lead with five noms, outperforming efforts made by the likes of Drake, Usher, Rihanna and Lady Gaga.
NME’s editor-in-chief Mike Williams said of this year’s nominations….
Every year we’re bowled over by the enthusiasm of the NME readers, voting in their thousands for their favourite bands, artists, tracks, albums and more. Covering every genre under the sun, this year’s shortlists reflect what an incredible 12 months of music we’ve had, both from returning superstars and brand new artists. We can’t wait to get them together in O2 Academy Brixton for the most rock ‘n’ roll night of the year, The VO5 NME Awards. Bring it on.
Awesome!

When your the queen and the awards keep coming in.
GO bey…lets get it
Yawn! Another day another slay! ???
.
Now where are them Formation Dates if she really is extending the tour!!!
Queen!
Yasssss, but when will little kimmora???㊗️㊙️
2017 is already shaping up to be another SLAYFUL year for Beyonce. Funny things this will be another run of the mill award show she WILL NOT ATTEND! They will mail these to her and the haters can stay mad! Let the haters start the “oh she paid for these awards comments” in 5,4,3,2,1
Worst band? Lmao they ate so shady .anyway congrat bey
5SOS is undefeated 2 years running! Wonder if they’ll win the category for a 3rd year in a row? ?
Congratulation$$$ Bey!!! $lay $i$!!!
I used to love NME, another sellouts.
But the gag is, u sold out your racist rock’n’roll faves, when you decided to spend 5 years trolling an urban blog
Good riddance sis, you won’t be missed.
This moron hates beyonce yet loves Madonna who was never a great singer or dancer. You’re the reason people think we’re jealous of every minority’s success bcoz I’ve never understood why anyone would hate beyonce.
Sellout because bey got nominated….SHUT THE F*** AND KEEP BEING A RACIST C****.
Don’t listen to these classless peasants. Anyone who remembers past NME winners remembers that it was a magazine who used to focus on the best of the best in music instead of those who are just popular like they are now. You could always find fantastic bands and upcoming indie ones. Now it’s just about the biggest pop names and the same tired bands.
She paid for every one of them!
Never heard of that award show before but congrats…….I guess
All these awards and year end accolades tho.. I can’t even keep up
The expense account that keeps on giving…
What´s this?
Tjhose nominations are a little bit original and different I must say. Hard to find nowadays. Although the moment I read Adele or Beyonce nominated for HEROS of the year (why exactly? For releasing an album?) or the nominees for best film I instantly think about this as an irrelevant joke.
go bey!! work ur $$$
buy these awards h**
At least she’s not buying her own album certifications
You go queen Bey good luck more blessing and success in all you do
Look at the nominees for Best Movie and Best Show. They alone should immediately inform everyone the standard of quality NME is looking for these days. Humans? S****** Squad? Who the hell watched S****** Squad and thought it was even remotely good, let alone Movie of the Year material?
I thought it wasn´t as bad as some wanted it to be (again). I enjoyed the team more than i thought I would. But obviously best of year material (neither this nor any other cbm) it is not. A joke.
Theres a worst band category…. lol
