Yet another awards show aired last night on NBC, but this one probably wasn’t what you’d expect, because the likes of it had never, EVER been seen before:
It was the inaugural broadcast of the iHeartRadio Music Awards!
What does that mean? Does it even matter? No idea and no.
Presenters included Selena Gomez, Adam Lambert and Hilary Duff, with Drake, Shakira, Pharrell, 30 Seconds To Mars, Ed Sheeran and Ariana Grande performing.
Justin Timberlake’s collaboration with Michael Jackson, “Love Never Felt So Good,” premiered during the show, while Rihanna was the night’s big winner.
