2014 Premios Juventud Awards and Nominations: Prince Royce, Romeo Santos Lead Nominations; William Levy, Sebastián Rulli Also Score Nods
This summer's Premios Juventud might be Prince Royce's or Romeo Santo's night.
Both singers have been nominated for 11 awards for the July 17 award show, TV y Novelas said.
The nominees were announced for the very first time exclusively on social media. It's part of Univision's bigger strategy to use social media during the event.
"No matter where our fans are, we give them an exclusive connection with their favorite artists or personalities that they're most interested in," said Carolina Valencia, social media director for Univision, to CNET en Español.
Prince Royce is nominated for Favorite Artist, My Tropical Artist, Your Favorite CD, The Catchiest and more. Romeo Santos is also nominated for Your Favorite CD, Favorite Artist and The Catchiest.
Enrique Iglesias, who is celebrating his 39th birthday today, also has something to celebrate. He is nominated for Favorite Rock Pop Artist. He will compete against Shakira, Enrique Iglesias, Alejandra Guzmán, Gloria Trevi and Juanes.
Pitbull and Marc Anthony will face off in the Tropical category. Each has been nominated for three awards.
Antonio Banderas, Benicio del Toro, Diego Luna, Jaime Camil and Eugenio Derbez are all nominated for Favorite Hispanic Movie Actor. The women nominated for the equivalent award are Zoe Saldana, Kate del Castillo, Michelle Rodriguez, Sofia Vergara and Salma Hayek.
But who is the most handsome actor? Is it Daniel Arenas, William Levy, Jose Ron, Jaime Camil or Sebastian Rulli? The men will be going up against each other, and it's up to you to decide.
There are 25 categories, and the awards are anything but typical.
