The American Music Awards will mark the very first time BTS and Coldplay perform their hit single ‘My Universe’ together on stage.

This will be BTS third performance at the American Music Awards. They had sung ‘DNA’ in 2017. Last year they closed the show with a performance from Korea on ‘Dynamite’ and ‘Life Goes On’. This will mark the first performance by Coldplay on AMA since 2015 when they sang ‘Adventure of a Lifetime.

BTS has been nominated in three categories at the AMA 2021. They are nominated for Artist of the Year, Favorite Pop Duo or Group, and Favorite Pop Song (for ‘Butter’).

BTS won favourite Pop Group for the last two years. If they win the same this year too then BTS will be the third pop group to do so. Daryl Hall & John Oates: (1983-85) and One Direction: (2013-15) are the ones who did the same earlier.
