The 2022 VMAs will be swinging by at the Garden State in just a few days, and excitement is in the air for one of the biggest questions of the night: Who will take home the Moon Person for Best New Artist? Olivia Rodrigo received the award last year, and Doja Cat, Billie Eilish, and Cardi B were among the recent winners. This year's nominees list is stuffed with celebrities like Gayle, whose outraged break-up pop rock hit "ABCDEFU" went viral on TikTok, and Latto, who saw her best-charting song, "Big Energy," reach No. 1. In 2021, 3 of the Billboard Hot 100 reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100. However, that's just scratching the surface. Scroll down to find out all the 2022 Best New Artist nominees ahead of the show on Sunday, August 28, or view the complete list of nominees right here.
