UPDATE: Round 3 is now closed!

Fan Army: The Barbz

Artist: Nicki Minaj

Nicki on her fans: "I'm very aware that millions of people on Twitter have no idea what we're talking about. That's because we kind of have our own language. I used to think it was just a Queens language or a New York language or an East Coast language, but now it's a Barb Nation language. I have South African Barbz, Japanese, German, Saudi Arabian. You can be a Barb wherever you live."

Fan Army: The Echelon

Artist: Thirty Seconds to Mars

The band on their fans: "If it wasn't for the Echelon, we wouldn't have ever won a single award. I think that's the blessing of living in this digital age, is that people have a voice, and the Echelon Nation out there has made their voice heard again and again, and we're so proud that they're able to gather together, to organize themselves, to fight for a common cause and to make dreams a reality. It's pretty special."
