The Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee hit "Despacito" was nominated for the song of summer 2017
" Despacito ", the worldwide success of Puerto Rican Luis Fonsi with his compatriot Daddy Yankee, received this week a nomination for the MTV Video Music Awards (VMA) in the category of best song of the summer.
Fonsi and Yankee compete with Justin Bieber's remix and face:
Demi Lovato ("Sorry Not Sorry")
Camila Cabello ft. Quavo ("OMG")
Ed Sheeran ("Shape Of You")
Shawn Mendes ("There's Nothing Holding Me Back")
Lil Uzi Vert ("XO Tour Llif3")
Fifth Harmony ft. Gucci Mane ("Down")
DJ Khaled ft. Rihanna and Bryson Tiller ("Wild Thoughts")
As a novelty, the MTV Video Music Awards do not distinguish this year between men and women, so the categories of best female artist video and best male artist video have been cast in the award for best artist of the year. The awards will be presented on August 27th at a ceremony that will take place at the Los Angeles Forum under the direction of Katy Perry
