The category for Top Video or Film Comedy pits Jim Gaffigan, The Onion, the makeover series 'Very Important People' and humour from Kai Cenat, Kevin Hart and Druski. They face stiff competition from Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman cracking on each other in a 'Tonight' show skit. In beauty, Selena Gomez's Rare Beauty line faces off against Alexis Bittar's 'The Bittarverse,' Byrdie, Retrofête and theSkimm.
