iHeartRadio Music Awards Tonight.

iHeartRadio Music Awards: Pharrell, Kendrick Lamar, Ariana Grande, Shakira, Ed Sheeran among acts

Associated Press
3:20 PM, May 1, 2014

What color hat will Pharrell wear this time?

The "Happy" singer is set to perform at the first iHeartRadio Music Awards on Thursday at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Rihanna, Diddy and Jennifer Lopez will attend, and A-list acts from Drake to Blake Shelton will hit the stage.

The three-hour, fan-voted show will air live on NBC at 8 p.m. Eastern.

While there are trophies, the performances will be the night's main highlight. Kendrick Lamar, Ariana Grande, Shakira, Ed Sheeran and Arcade Fire are also part of the jam-packed line-up, which will include performances from L.A. venues including the Shrine, the Roxy and the Hotel Cafe.

iHeart Radio Music Awards

Rihanna will battle the boys for artist of the year. Nominees include Justin Timberlake, Maroon 5, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis and Imagine Dragons.

Presenters include Gwen Stefani, Lionel Richie, Selena Gomez and Juanes, while Lady Gaga and Katy Perry will make "special appearances," though it's not clear if they are attending.

Rihanna is also nominated for song of the year. Her slow tune "Stay" will compete with Eminem's "The Monster" - where she's featured - as well as Pitbull and Kesha's "Timber" and "Suit & Tie" and "Holy Grail" from Timberlake and Jay Z.

Lorde, Imagine Dragons and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - who all won Grammys in their debut years - will compete for best new artist. Florida Georgia Line, Icona Pop and Passenger are also nominated in the latter category.

Clear Channel's iHeartMusic Awards will also include performances by Pitbull, Luke Bryan and Thirty Seconds to Mars.

The biggest names in music - plus a brand new song from Michael Jackson - perform live during the iHeartRadio Music Awards, Thursday, May 1 at 8/7c.

excited Just kidding that looks really lame. So there are music awards every month now right? Everyone gets a little trophy like in peewee soccer. I know its an awful thought but it would be the perfect place for a plane to drop or for the rapture to begin. iHeartConsumerism - is this stuff related to iHeartComix and frankie chan?

I taped it and will watch it for the performances. Yeah awards shows are a dime a dozen nowadays, but it's a chance to see those you like. cool iheart radio does give artist an outlet to showcase their talent. iheart radio use to have free shows featuring alot of new and known talents in NYC for awhile.

Yet another award show? And one that looks no different than almost every other one we have already? LAME.
