Troye Sivan in particular is going to have a very memorable night; the artist/producer will be making his award show performance debut, and is also named Kia’s “One To Watch” at the BBMAs. Billboard states that “Sivan’s BBMAs honor is recognition for making the incredible leap from bedroom producer to global recording star.”
