LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess) — Though it may be facing potential bankruptcy, the show must go on for iHeartRadio as the company hosted its flagship iHeartRadio Music Awards gala in Los Angeles on Sunday night.
Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran, The Chainsmokers, Luis Fonsi, and k-pop group BTS all tied for the most wins, taking home a pair of trophies each. Ed Sheeran picked up wins for Song of the Year and Best Male Artist. Bruno Mars won for Best R&B Song and Best R&B Artist of the year. Taylor Swift, who used the awards show as a platform to debut the new video for her song ‘Delicate’ won the award for Best Female Artist.
In the rock category, Foo Fighters won the prize for Rock Song of the Year for ‘Run’ while award show perennials Metallica won the prize for Best Rock Band.
The Chainsmokers picked up Dance Artist of the Year and shared an award with Coldplay for Best Collaboration for their hit “Something Just Like This.” Thomas Rhett took home the award for Best Country Artist for 2017, while Kendrick Lamar, unsurprisingly, picked up the trophy for Best Hip-Hop Artist.
