Update:

Today’s Billboard Latin Music Awards are to be hosted by the duo of musician Gloria “Goyo” Martínez and television presenter Javier Poza, as rapper Bad Bunny seeks to make history at the 32nd edition of the gala.

Who are Goyo and Javier Poza?

An Afro-Colombian singer, songwriter and rapper, Goyo is a founding member of ChocQuibTown, a two-time Latin Grammy-winning group whose style encompasses a range of musical genres.

“She has elevated Afro-Colombian identity to global stages through a sound that fuses rap, tropical rhythms, and alternative beats,” Billboard says. Earlier this year, Goyo brought out her debut solo album, Pantera.

Poza, meanwhile, is a TV personality well known to viewers of Telemundo, the broadcaster of the Billboard Latin Music Awards. Notably, he has hosted reality shows on the network such as La Casa de los Famosos: All Stars 2025 and La Isla: Desafío Extremo.

Who are the chief Billboard Latin Music nominees?

Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny leads the nominees at this year’s Billboard Latin Music Awards, with 27 nods. The awards he is up for include Artist of the Year - an accolade he has won consecutively since 2020.

Billboard has also confirmed the 31-year-old will receive a special honor at today’s ceremony: the Top Latin Artist of the 21st Century Award.

Throughout his career, Bad Bunny has amassed 43 Billboard Latin Music Awards - leaving him within sight of becoming the most decorated artist in the gala’s history. Enrique Iglesias currently holds the record, with 48 awards.

On 2025’s list of top nominees, Bad Bunny is followed by the regional Mexican group Fuerza Regida, which is a contender for 15 awards. Puerto Rican singer Rauw Alejandro is just behind, on 14 nominations. Check out the full list of nominees at the 2025 Billboard Latin Music Awards.
