iHeartRadio Award Winners!
Taylor Swift, Alicia Keys and Garth Brooks were among the big winners last night at the iHeartRadio Music Awards. Hosted by T-Pain, the ceremony, which aired on Fox, was held at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.
Swift received the Tour of the Year award for her Reputation stadium tour, which grossed $345.7 million, a record for a U.S. tour by any artist. In her acceptance speech, Swift said the tour’s blockbuster numbers were a welcomed response by fans to predictions by critics that she would be playing to “nearly empty stadiums.” “It really did wonders for my self-esteem,” Swift said.
Grey, Zedd and Maren Morris won for Song of the Year for “The Middle.”
Ariana Grande won for Female Artist of the Year and Artist of the Year, while Drake was chosen as Male Artist of the Year.
