Taylor Swift could have another big night at the iHeartRadio Music Awards this year. She was nominated for eight awards, coming in just ahead of The Weeknd, Adele, Drake, Justin Bieber and Ed Sheeran.
Swift is up for Song of the Year for “Blank Space” and Female Artist of the Year. 1989 was also nominated for Album of the Year and the tour earned a Tour of the Year nod. Her other nominations are for Best Collaboration for “Bad Blood” with Kendrick Lamar; Best Meme-Able Moment for “Blank Space”; and Best Fan Army.
The Weeknd is in second place with six nominations. “Can’t Feel My Face” and Beauty Behind The Madness are competing against Swift in the Song and Album of the Year categories, respectively. He is also up for Male Artist; R&B Song for “The Hills” and “Earned It”; Best Song from a Movie for “Earned It”; and R&B Artist of the Year.
Adele, Drake, Bieber and Sheeran all earned five nominations each.
Swift won three awards during last year’s ceremony. And, as previously reported, the awards show moved from NBC to TBS And TNT this year.
Tickets to attend the show on April 3 at 8 p.m. at the Forum in Los Angeles go on sale Feb. 10 for Capriol One cardholders. Tickets for the public go on sale on Feb. 13. Bieber and Meghan Trainor are the first performers announced.
