BTS becomes the only music group to have six wins at Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards
Looks like their chart-topping success is not enough to keep fans engaged as BTS continues to bag new music show wins every single day, breaking their own records. First, it was announced that BTS was nominated six times for seven different categories at the 2022 Billboard Music Awards (BBMAs) where their two latest English singles, ‘Butter’ and ‘Permission to Dance,’ would compete against one another for the winning title. Now, BTS has bagged a new win at the 2022 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards.
It was announced on April 9 that BTS took home the Favorite Music Group award at the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards held in Santa Monica. While members of BTS are currently in the US, they are rather busy performing at the four-day ‘Permission to Dance on Stage’ concert in Las Vegas. The boy group performed for the second consecutive day on April 9 and are on a break until April 15, which will be Day 3 of the show.
