Lady Gaga and Sia will go up against her for Best Female, while Biebs will fight off competition from Calvin Harris, Drake, Shawn Mendes and The Weeknd for Best Male.
Adele will also be challenged in the Best UK and Ireland Act category by Zayn Malik, Coldplay, Little Mix and Years and Years.
Meanwhile, our favourite Swedish star Zara Larsson has been recognised for her huge success over the past 12 months and nominated as Best New Act alongside Bebe Rexha, Joe Jonas’ group DNCE, Lukas Graham and The Chainsmokers.
