Bunnie XO & Jelly Roll
Bunnie XO and Jelly Roll at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards held at the Dolby Theatre on April 1, 2024 in Los Angeles.
Between performers and winners, the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards on Monday night (April 1) at Dolby Theater in Los Angeles was a star-studded affair.
Justin Timberlake kicked things off for the show’s performers, starting the show with “Selfish” and “No Angels,” both from his just-released sixth album, Everything I Thought It Was. Other performers included Ludacris — who also served as the night’s host — as well as Green Day, Jelly Roll with Lainey Wilson, Tate McRae and TLC, who enlisted Latto to fill in for the late Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes on her “Waterfalls” rap verse.
Cher also hit the stage as she received the Icon Award, introduced by Oscar-winning actress Meryl Streep. Jennifer Hudson paid tribute to Cher by singing her 1989 hit “If I Could Turn Back Time,” before Cher herself joined Hudson onstage for the 1998 smash “Believe.”
And that was just the performers — we also saw SZA, Ice Spice and Fall Out Boy all take the stage to accept awards, as well as a video message from the night’s artist of the year, Taylor Swift.
Also on hand was Beyoncé to accept the Innovator Award from Stevie Wonder. “Innovation starts with a dream, and the road to execute that dream can be very bumpy,” Bey said in her heartfelt acceptance speech. “Being an innovator is doing what everyone believes is impossible. Being an innovator often means being criticized, which often will test your mental strength. Being an innovator is leaning on faith and trusting that God will catch you and guide you.”
