Taylor Swift may never, ever get back together with One Direction's Harry Styles, but she will have to face off with him March 23 at Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards.

Some of the nominations were announced earlier today, and Taylor and the boy band are competing for a "Blimp" award in the Favorite Song category, which also includes nominees Carly Rae Jepsen for "Call Me Maybe" and PSY's "Gangnam Style." Taylor is nominated for her song "We Are Never Getting Back Together" while 1D got a nod for "What Makes You Beautiful."

1D is also up for an award in Favorite Musical Group, up against Big Time Rush, Bon Jovi, and Maroon 5.

In a statement to AOL Music, Maroon 5 expressed their excitement over the announcement. "We were so excited to get the news today and would like to thank our fans for acknowledging us in this way!" they stated. "The guys and I had such a great time making our new album and so it is terrific to get this kind of recognition."

A full list of nominees will be revealed later today, but EW.com confirms that Miranda Cosgrove, Bridgit Mendler, Selena Gomez, and Victoria Justice are the Favorite TV Actress nominees, with their four separate shows competing for Favorite TV Show.

Voting opens in 22 categories on Nick.com this Thursday, Feb. 14, which happens to be Valentine's Day.

The show will broadcast live from University of Southern California's Galen Center on March 23 at 8PM ET, on Nickelodeon. Fergie's husband, actor Josh Duhamel, is hosting.
