Sarah Geronimo, Daniel Padilla, Gloc-9, and James Reid prove their star power as they reigned supreme at the Myx Music Awards 2015 nomination night with five nominations in various categories.
The roster of nominees for the Myx Music Awards also includes newcomers in the music industry like “The Voice Kids” Darren Espanto, Lyca Gairanod, teen queen Kathryn Bernardo, actress turned singer Maja Salvador, and the rising Kapamilya love team of James Reid and Nadine Lustre. Big names in OPM were also featured in the nominees list including popstar royalty Sarah Geronimo, Awit-award winning rapper Gloc-9, and rock chick Yeng Constantino among others.
On its tenth year, the Myx Music Awards is set to a festive, bohemian theme with 17 awards up for grabs, 15 of which are exclusive to local artists while two awards are dedicated for international artists.
Meanwhile, Andre Alvarez the channel head of Myx kept mum about who will receive the Myx Magna Award when teased by the Myx VJs. Instead of dishing out clues, Alvarez stressed the importance of voting by spreading the word to friends and family rather than creating multiple social media accounts to generate publicity for the music artists.
Music fans and the youth can vote through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and via myxph.com until March 22. Instructions for voting are given in myxph.com. Winners will be determined from a 60-40 voting with 60 percent coming from fan votes and the remaining 40 percent from artist poll.
The Myx Music Awards will happen at SM Aura Premier’s Samsung Hall on March 25.
