According to ID Africa, owners of Nigerian
Entertainment Today (Netng), this year’s edition features 35 categories,
including 15 new voting categories that will give fans more power to choose
their favourite celebrities for the awards.
As the world’s number one source for
African entertainment and a trusted destination for reports and insights that
deepen the knowledge of young people about the continent’s entertainment space,
Netng initiated NET Honours to recognise and celebrate Nigerians’ favourite celebrities
and public figures who have contributed to shaping the most exciting pop
culture topics and events in the year under review.
Multi-award-winning artistes, Wizkid and
Simi lead the pack of NET Honours Class of 2022 nominees with four nominations
each. Wizkid earned nominations for Most Popular Music Artiste (Male), Most
Searched Music Artiste (Male), Most Popular Fandom (Music), and Most Watched Video,
while Simi earned nominations for the Most Popular Musician (Female), Most
Searched Musician (Female), Most Popular Fandom (Music), and Most Popular
Couple, making her the most-nominated artiste for the second time in two
seasons after her impressive six nods in 2021.
Davido and Burna Boy, who, like Wizkid,
have also maintained an impressive grip on the global music space in the year
under review, got three nominations each in the Most Popular Music Artiste
(Male), Most Searched Music Artiste (Male); and Most Popular Fandom (Music)
categories.
Other notable nominations include Mr
Macaroni, Sabinus, Kiekie, Taaooma, and Broda Shaggi, who secured two
nominations each for Most Popular Comedian and Most Popular Social Content
Creator.
NET Honours, one of the world’s most
prestigious verified audience data-based awards, debuted in 2013 as a special
recognition award presented to deserving individuals in the Nigerian
entertainment industry during the Nigerian Entertainment Conference (NECLive).
In 2016, it evolved into NET Honours People’s Choice Awards. Then in 2020, due
to the pandemic, the awards went virtual, reaching over 10 million people
worldwide.
“NET Honours provides useful data on
popular culture trends and the interests of urban youth in Africa. The platform
is a valuable source of insights for brands, organisations and governments that
are trying to understand young Africans and their digital media consumption
habits,” says Femi Falodun, the CEO of Info Digital Africa (ID Africa), owners
of Netng, Neusroom, 234Star, and Orin.
NET Honours focuses on recognising
achievers in the entertainment industry through a thorough analysis of online
audience search, consumer interest, social media interactions and search trends
on Netng’s website, social media platforms and other related channels. Data for
the awards are based on audience engagement from a database of over 10 million
internet users reached across Netng’s website and social media channels between
June 2021 and May 2022.
This year, NET Honours has introduced 15
new voting categories for the first time in six years. The new categories are
Most Popular DJ, Most Popular Dancer/Video Vixen, Most Popular Music Producer,
Breakout Artiste of the Year, Social Content Creator of the Year, Most Popular
Video Director (Music Video/Skit), Most Popular Fandom (Music), Most Popular
Fandom (BBNaija), Most Popular Celebrity Stylist, Most Popular Designer, Most
Popular Photographer, Breakout Actor of the Year, Breakout Actress of the Year,
Breakout Artiste of the Year (Male), and Breakout Artiste of the Year (Female).
Online voting for the 15 new categories
will commence at 7 pm WAT on thenet.ng/honours, after the unveiling of
nominees, and will end by midnight on Tuesday, June 28.
Winners will be announced on Friday, July
1, 2022, on the Netng’s website and social media platforms.
