Demi, Camila, 5H, And More Will Battle It Out For The VMA Song Of Summer Award
Your ballots have been cast, the votes have been tallied, and those VMA Moon Person trophies are getting prepped and polished for your fave artists to take home this weekend. But first, we’re revealing the lineup for one final category: Song of Summer, presented by Verizon.
Fifth Harmony’s “All in My Head (Flex)” nabbed the coveted award last year, and they’re nominated again for the Gucci Mane-featuring hit “Down.” Will they pull off back-to-back wins? Or will Demi Lovato, Luis Fonsi, Camila Cabello, or one of the other worthy contenders steal the crown?
