NEW YORK (AP) — It’s Taylor Swift’s world, and the MTV Video Music Award nominations are the latest proof.

“The Tortured Poets Department” singer once again tops the VMA noms with 10 — eight for her “Fortnight” music video and nods in the Artist of the Year and Best Pop categories.

Swift is followed by her “Fortnight” collaborator Post Malone, who is nominated along with Swift eight times, and earned his ninth nom for his country hit “I Had Some Help,” featuring Morgan Wallen.

Rounding out the Artist of the Year category nominees, announced Tuesday, are Ariana Grande, Bad Bunny, Eminem, Sabrina Carpenter and SZA.

Swift took home nine VMAs last year, bringing her total to an impressive 23. That places her just behind Beyoncé, who has 28 (two with Destiny’s Child) and just ahead of Madonna, who has 20 awards, and Lady Gaga, who has 19.

Carpenter's use of a Roman Catholic church in Brooklyn as a backdrop for parts of a music video led to a pastor being stripped of his administrative duties after its release and officials holding a Mass to restore the church's “sanctity.” Carpenter released the video for “Feather” on Oct. 31.
