Ci sono anche i Maneskin tra gli artisti candidati agli MTV Video Music Awards 2022, il contest che premia i migliori videoclip del mondo e le migliori canzoni degli ultimi 12 mesi.
Da quando hanno vinto l’Eurovision song contest nel 2021, i Maneskin sono sul trampolino di lancio e già lo scorso anno sono riusciti a vincere nella categoria Best Rock agli Mtv Ema Awards, mettendosi dietro mostri sacri del calibro di Foo Fighters, Coldplay, Imagine Dragons, Kings of Leon e The Killers.
La cerimonia di consegna dei VMAs 2022 è in programma per il 28 agosto al Prudential Center di Newark, nel New Jersey. L’arena indoor è una delle più grandi dello Stato e al suo interno possono trovare posto fino a 17.500 persone e si presume che a breve potrebbe già registrarsi il sold-out. Quest’anno, i Maneskin non sono stati candidati nella categoria Best Rock ma sono stati inseriti nella categoria Best New Artist. Tuttavia, nonostante il prestigio della categoria Best New Artist, i Maneskin stanno puntando a ottenere la vittoria nella categoria Best Alternative, nella quale sono stati candidati con con I wanna be your slave.
