Juno Awards 2013 Nominations Revealed
The nominees have arrived for Canada's Juno Awards, scheduled to go down April 21 in Regina, Saskatchewan. Carly Rae Jepsen leads the pack with five nods, while Justin Bieber—who actually helped break Jepsen's career—follows with four. Marianas Trench and Metric both landed three noms and Leonard Cohen and Drake scored two.
