Nominees: Carly Rae Jepsen, Fun., Lana Del Rey, One Direction, Rita Ora

Can there really be any debate over who's going to take this one? This is the only category 1D are nominated in (though their fans get a nod later on), and their rivals are barely in the same league in terms of sales, status and global fanbase. Directioners are likely to vote for this one in their droves, meaning this should be an easy win for Harry, Zayn, Niall, Liam and Louis.

Our prediction: One Direction
