The post 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards: Taylor Swift Wins Big appeared first on Hot Pop Today.
]]>Swift defeated tough competition to win the award for the artist of the year, in addition to coming out victorious in eight more categories. The Tortured Poets Department was named the best pop album of the year, while “Fortnight” ft. Post Malone won awards for best lyrics and music video.
Swift wasn’t in attendance at the ceremony, but she tuned in via video to accept the award for tour of the century for her record-breaking The Eras Tour. She described it as the most gratifying thing she’s ever done and thanked the fans for making it happen.
“The only reason I was able to take on those challenges, among others, the ambition of the production, the length of the show, the amount of shows in all the different countries we played in, that’s all because of the fans. You had the passion and the generosity to care about traveling to see us on tour in all these places all over the world,” said Swift.
The 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards took place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 17, with LL Cool J serving as a host.

]]>An artist becomes eligible for Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nomination 25 years after the release of their first commercial recording, and many of this year’s candidates happen to be first-timers. That happens to be the case with the English rock supergroup Bad Company, blues-rockers The Black Crowes, early rock n’ roll legend Chubby Checker, blues singer Joe Cocker, punk rocker Billy Idol, Mexican rockers Maná, and hip-hop duo Outkast.
The list of 14 acts vying for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction also includes the powerhouse singer Mariah Carey, post-punk pioneers Joy Division/New Order, dance-pop legend Cyndi Lauper, jam band Phish, grunge hitmakers Soundgarden, the rock duo The White Stripes, and Britpop band Oasis, who recently reunited for the sold-out Oasis Live ’25 Tour.
Nominees will be voted on by a committee of 1,200 artists, historians, and music industry professionals. The Class of 2025 will be announced in late April, while the induction ceremony will take place in Los Angeles this fall.

The Recording Academy and MusiCares launched the Los Angeles Fire Relief Effort in response to this crisis, pledging an initial $1 million donation to support music creatives and professionals. They’ll use the upcoming Grammy Awards as “a platform to amplify the spirit of resilience that defines this great city of Los Angeles.”

]]>The post 2024 MTV VMAs: Taylor Swift Wins Big With “Fortnight” ft. Post Malone appeared first on Hot Pop Today.
]]>Swift broke her own record when she won another video of the year award at the MTV VMAs for “Fortnight” ft. Post Malone. They had to beat tough competition in Ariana Grande’s “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)”, Billie Eilish’s “Lunch”, Doja Cat’s “Paint the Town Red”, Eminem’s “Houdini”, and SZA’s “Snooze” to take this award home.
“Fortnight” was also named song of the summer, in addition to winning awards for best collaboration, editing, and direction. Swift brought the number of her wins to seven by winning two more awards on her own – artist of the year and best pop.
Despite collecting trophy after trophy all night long, “Fortnight” wasn’t named the song of the year. This award went to Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso”, who also managed to beat Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ‘Em”, Jack Harlow’s “Lovin on Me”, Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us”, and Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control”.
The 2024 MTV VMAs took place at the UBS Arena in Elmont, New York, on September 11, with Megan Thee Stallion hosting the show for the first time.

]]>Swift defeated tough competition to win the award for the artist of the year, in addition to coming out victorious in eight more categories. The Tortured Poets Department was named the best pop album of the year, while “Fortnight” ft. Post Malone won awards for best lyrics and music video.
Swift wasn’t in attendance at the ceremony, but she tuned in via video to accept the award for tour of the century for her record-breaking The Eras Tour. She described it as the most gratifying thing she’s ever done and thanked the fans for making it happen.
“The only reason I was able to take on those challenges, among others, the ambition of the production, the length of the show, the amount of shows in all the different countries we played in, that’s all because of the fans. You had the passion and the generosity to care about traveling to see us on tour in all these places all over the world,” said Swift.
The 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards took place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 17, with LL Cool J serving as a host.

]]>An artist becomes eligible for Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nomination 25 years after the release of their first commercial recording, and many of this year’s candidates happen to be first-timers. That happens to be the case with the English rock supergroup Bad Company, blues-rockers The Black Crowes, early rock n’ roll legend Chubby Checker, blues singer Joe Cocker, punk rocker Billy Idol, Mexican rockers Maná, and hip-hop duo Outkast.
The list of 14 acts vying for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction also includes the powerhouse singer Mariah Carey, post-punk pioneers Joy Division/New Order, dance-pop legend Cyndi Lauper, jam band Phish, grunge hitmakers Soundgarden, the rock duo The White Stripes, and Britpop band Oasis, who recently reunited for the sold-out Oasis Live ’25 Tour.
Nominees will be voted on by a committee of 1,200 artists, historians, and music industry professionals. The Class of 2025 will be announced in late April, while the induction ceremony will take place in Los Angeles this fall.

]]>The post 2024 MTV VMAs: Taylor Swift Wins Big With “Fortnight” ft. Post Malone appeared first on Hot Pop Today.
]]>Swift broke her own record when she won another video of the year award at the MTV VMAs for “Fortnight” ft. Post Malone. They had to beat tough competition in Ariana Grande’s “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)”, Billie Eilish’s “Lunch”, Doja Cat’s “Paint the Town Red”, Eminem’s “Houdini”, and SZA’s “Snooze” to take this award home.
“Fortnight” was also named song of the summer, in addition to winning awards for best collaboration, editing, and direction. Swift brought the number of her wins to seven by winning two more awards on her own – artist of the year and best pop.
Despite collecting trophy after trophy all night long, “Fortnight” wasn’t named the song of the year. This award went to Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso”, who also managed to beat Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ‘Em”, Jack Harlow’s “Lovin on Me”, Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us”, and Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control”.
The 2024 MTV VMAs took place at the UBS Arena in Elmont, New York, on September 11, with Megan Thee Stallion hosting the show for the first time.
