On Monday (February 26), Nickelodeon revealed the nominees for the 2018 edition of the Kids Choice Awards, and their are some pretty impressive names on the ballots! Heavy hitters in pop music like Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber all received nods; however, the awards also recognize other talent that had an exceptional year, including Camila Cabello, Cardi B and Kendrick Lamar. Aside from music, the award show also honors those making a difference in television, film and digital.

This year, the lauded kids network is trying something different by opening a four-week voting wave, where new categories are revealed each week, which kicks off on February 26. Fans can go to the official Kids Choice Awards website to vote for their favorites.

Former WWE star John Cena returns to host the ceremony on March 24 in Inglewood, California, and Nickelodeon star Jojo Siwa is set to perform. Check out a full list of nominees below.
