“This is the one awards show that shares the hard-earned journeys to the top of the biggest artists and songs of the year with fans,” John Sykes, president of entertainment enterprises for iHeartMedia, said in a statement. The event, now in its 10th year, also will be heard on iHeartMedia radio stations nationwide and on the iHeartRadio app. The 2023 iHeartRadio Music Awards will air live from Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Monday, March 27 (8-10 p.m. The other nominees are AJR, Black Eyed Peas, Blackpink, Glass Animals, Imagine Dragon, Måneskin, OneRepublic, Parmalee and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Silk Sonic, who won best duo/group of the year last year, are back to defend their title. There are five female and five male nominees: Beyoncé, Doja Cat, Drake, Dua Lipa, Styles, Harlow, Bieber, Lizzo, Swift and The Weeknd.

Instead of presenting female and male artist of the year, as they have since they began in 2014, this year the iHearts will present one gender-neutral top category – artist of the year. The iHearts are joining the growing trend of doing away with gendered categories. Billboard’s Greatest Pop Stars of 2022: No.
