iHeartRadio Music Awards aired on FOX on Monday (March 17) at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles and celebrated its 12th annual soiree with some of the biggest stars in music.

Hosted by LL Cool J, the night saw presenters and performances by GloRilla, Sexyy Red, Billie Eilish, Muni Long, Bad Bunny, Taylor Swift, Nelly, and more.

Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft was named album of the year. It was nominated for a 2025 Grammy in that same category but lost to Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter.

SZA won R&B artist of the year for the third year in a row, which sets a new record for most wins in the category. SZA surpasses H.E.R., who won twice in 2020-21. Jelly Roll won country artist of the year, one year after winning for new country artist of the year. GloRilla won hip-hop artist of the year, two years after she tied with Latto for new hip-hop artist of the year. Sabrina Carpenter won pop artist of the year for the first time. Green Day won alternative artist of the year for the first time.

Three powerhouse women won honorary awards. Lady Gaga received the 2025 iHeartRadio Innovator Award, Mariah Carey received the 2025 iHeartRadio Icon Award, and Taylor Swift’s record-breaking Eras Tour was named Tour of the Century (despite the fact that we’re only one-quarter of the way through the century). In addition, Nelly received the iHeartRadio Landmark Award, to mark the 25th anniversary of his debut studio album, Country Grammar.
