Billboard's Milestone Award: And The Three Finalists Are...

Music fans have spoken! The three finalists for Billboard's second annual MIlestone Award are in, and they are Carrie Underwood, Ellie Goulding, and OneRepublic.

The dynamic trio beat out Imagine Dragons, John Legend, and Luke Bryan to advance to the finals in the wholly fan-voted category.

The finalists were revealed Monday morning by Billboard, Dick Clark Productions, and Chevrolet following three weeks of fan voting. The actual winner will also be determined by fan vote; fans can visit here to choose their favorite starting now and running through to the 2014 Billboard Music Awards which take place May 18. Voting will officially close two hours into the broadcast, 10 p.m. ET.

This is the sophomore year for this particular award, which honors an innovative artist who achieved a notable chart milestone in the past year. Last year's winner was Justin Bieber.

The 2014 Billboard Music Awards will be broadcast live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Tune in to ABC May 18 at 8 p.m. ET.
