The nominees for the 2022 People’s Choice Awards are out, and that’s good news for fans!
Unlike other awards shows that rely on venerable, industry-related voting bodies, the PCAs puts the power in the hands of film buffs, TV bingers, music lovers, and anyone around the world with an appreciation for pop culture.
TODAY is proud to be among the first to announce the nominee list on Wednesday, Oct. 26, highlighting the best in entertainment across 40 categories — from action movies to albums and from pop music to podcasts. And we’re proud to see Hoda & Jenna make the list, too.
While fans will have to wait until Dec. 6 to find out the winners when returning host (and nominee) Kenan Thompson kicks off the live broadcast simultaneously on NBC and E!, they don’t have to wait any longer to have their say in the outcome.
