• Camila Cabello, Meghan Trainor, Selena Gomez, Shawn Mendes, Taylor Swift, Maroon 5, Bruno Mars and Ed Sheeran lead the nominations for the 2018 Radio Disney Music Awards (RDMA). Nominees for music’s biggest event for families — the 6th annual show — were announced last Friday during a special #FriYAYLive nomination live stream, hosted by Radio Disney’s Morgan Tompkins and DJ Lela B with special guests Jenna Ortega (“Stuck in the Middle”), singer-songwriter Carson Lueders and social media influencer Sofie Dossi. As a special treat, recently named Radio Disney “NBT” artist JAGMAC treated fans to two acoustic performances.
From now through Sunday, June 3, fans can vote for the artists that they want to take home an “ARDY” across six voting platforms: Disney.com/RDMA, the Radio Disney app, the DisneyNOW app, Google Search Voting and Radio Disney’s Facebook and Twitter.
Radio Disney has nominated top artists across 15 categories, including one new category, “Doubletap — Favorite Social Music Artist,” recognizing musical talent across social media platforms. The complete list of nominees is posted at Disney.com/RDMA.
The winners will be announced on Friday, June 22, at the Dolby Theatre® in Hollywood.
