Iglesias, who has won the AMA award five times in his career, has earned major praise from fans and critics alike for his latest single “Bailando.”

The single has been No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs chart for more than 20 weeks, and it even reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Dance Songs chart.

Iglesias will face off against Marc Anthony, a two-time winner in the category, and Romeo Santos.

The American Music Awards will be broadcast live from L.A. Live‘s Nokia Theatre on Sunday, November 23 from 8-11 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

Voting begins Monday in all categories except New Artist of the Year on AMAvote.com and via Twitter by tweeting the nominee’s name, category and #AMAs hashtag. Voting for the New Artist of the Year opens November 1 and closes in the first hour of the November 23 live telecast.
