NEW YORK (AP) — The MTV Video Music Awards back on Wednesday night with a whole lot of Taylor Swift. Will she become the most awarded musician in VMA history?

The pop star leads the nominations with 12 — eight for her “Fortnight” music video, two social categories and nods in the best pop and artist of the year categories. She’s followed by her “Fortnight” collaborator Post Malone, who has 11. He has been nominated 10 times along with Swift, and earned his 11th nomination for his country hit “I Had Some Help,” featuring Morgan Wallen.

It’s unclear if Swift will attend the show, but if she does, winning would give her a prominent platform expression of support for Kamala Harris’ presidential candidacy. Fast the vice president signed Tuesday night, moments after Harris debate with former President Donald Trump ended.

Looking at previous years, Swift may give multiple speeches.

Last year she took home nine VMAs, bringing her total to an impressive 23, just behind Beyoncéwho has 30 and is just ahead of Madonna, who has 20. Lady Gaga, has 19.

If Swift wins seven times, she will tie Beyoncé’s record. And if she wins eight, she could become the most-awarded musician in VMA history.

That is, if Beyoncé doesn’t take home any of her own trophies. She’s up for song of the year (“Texas Hold ‘Em”) and two social categories.

The VMAs, which begin at 8 p.m. Eastern and are held at the UBS Arena on New York’s Long Island, will be hosted by Megan Thee Stallion. It will be her first time hosting an awards show. She will also perform. The last two years have been hosted by Nicki Minaj: she will host in 2023, and she will be joined by Lil Wayne and Jack Harlow in 2022.

Katy Perry will receive the Video Vanguard Award and also perform. Previous recipients include Shakira, Beyoncé, Minaj, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna and Missy Elliott.

Other scheduled performers include Eminem, who will open the show, and Benson Boone, Sabrina Carpenter, Megan Thee Stallion, Chappell Roan, GloRilla, Halsey, Lenny Kravitz, LISA, Rauw Alejandro, Karol G, LL COOL J, Shawn Mendes, Camila Cabello and Anitta, who will be joined by Fat Joe, DJ Khaled and Tiago PZK.

The VMAs air on MTV and are simulcast on BET, BET Her, CMT, Comedy Central, Logo, MTV, MTV2, Nick at Nite, Paramount Network, Pop, TV Land, VH1 and in Spanish on Univision.
