Nicki Minaj), Cher Lloyd (Want U Back) and One Direction (Live While We're Young).


Bieber is also up against Bruno Mars, Cody Simpson and Austin Mahone for Best Male Artist while Gomez faces competition from Lloyd, Swift and Bridgit Mendler for Best Female Artist.


The ceremony will feature performances from several nominees including Gomez, Swift, Mendler and Lloyd.


Online voting for the nominees closes on 14 April (13).
