The nominations are based on sales and airplay but the winners are a result of a random selection of 20,000 Americans so the winners may not be the ones who sell the most or have the most airplay.

Where are the critically acclaimed Dixie Chicks, why is Clarkson or Mariah nominated, and when did The Black Eye Peas become a hip hop or even a rap group.
AMA nominations = toilet. These nominations are worse that the MTV award winners.

www.accesshollywood.com/news/ah1756.shtmlJimmy Kimmel To Return As AMA Host LOS ANGELES (September 26, 2006) -- Jimmy Kimmel will return as host of the "2006 American Music Awards" for the third time, it was announced on Tuesday. The show will air as a three hour television special on ABC live from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles on November 21. Kimmel, the multi-talented TV personality, talk show host, and producer, will take the stage to help hand out twenty American Music Awards representing the best of Pop/Rock, Country, Soul/Rhythm & Blues, Rap/Hip Hop, Latin, Alternative, Adult Contemporary and Contemporary Inspirational music. "I am very happy to have been asked to return as host of the American Music Awards and graciously accept ABC's apology for snubbing me last year," said Kimmel. In addition to his hit late-night talk show, Kimmel was also recently announced as the host of the new ABC game show "Set for Life," which will premiere later this year. The "2006 American Music Awards" will feature a star studded list of nominees, presenters and performers. Initial performers just announced by show Producer Larry Klein include Beyoncé, Josh Groban and nominees Mary J. Blige and Carrie Underwood. Additional performers and presenters to be announced. For a complete list of nominees, please visit www.abc.com.

These nominations are worse that the MTV award winners. I agree with you about Dixie Chicks. Have they got any awards this year? I think their album is great, much better than most of country albums out there.

These nominations are worse that the MTV award winners. As far as Mariah and Kelly being nominated it makes sense..Both have had smash albums that have outsold most artist even though their albums are well over one year old. The Black Eye Peas have always done hip hop and rap and they are proven hitmakers.

Maybe Billy Ray and Miley Cyrus will give Carrie yet another award. It would make the third time this year. I doubt it, but it'd be funny.

does anyone else find it funny she's doing a medley of her hits? "Jesus take the wheel" and "don't forget to remember me" go well together, but the segue to BHC should be interesting...
