Taylor Swift is the leading nominee for the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards, which are set to air live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on April 1 on Fox. Swift received nine nods. Jelly Roll, 21 Savage and SZA are close behind with eight nods. Olivia Rodrigo received seven.
The nominations show the degree to which women dominated pop radio in 2023. All five nominees for pop artist of the year are women: Doja Cat, Miley Cyrus, Rodrigo, SZA and Swift.
By contrast, all five nominees for hip-hop artist of the year are men: 21 Savage, Drake, Future, Gunna and Lil Durk.
Three artists showed their versatility by being nominated as artist of the year in two genres. Jelly Roll is nominated for both country artist of the year and rock artist of the year; SZA for both pop and R&B artist of the year; and Foo Fighters for both rock and alternative artist of the year.
Jack Antonoff is the only creative who is nominated for both producer of the year and songwriter of the year.
This year’s show will include five new categories focused on pop and K-pop: pop artist of the year, pop song of the year, K-pop artist of the year, K-pop song of the year and best new artist (K-pop).
Fan voting will determine this year’s best lyrics, best music video, best fan army, social star award, favorite tour photographer, TikTok bop of the year, favorite on screen, favorite tour style and favorite debut album.
Social voting begins Thursday (Jan. 18) and will close March 25 at 11:59 p.m. PT. Fans can vote by visiting iHeartRadio.com/awards.
The 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards will air live on Monday, April 1, from 8-10 p.m. ET live/PT tape-delayed on Fox. The event will also be heard on iHeartRadio stations nationwide and on the iHeartRadio app.

“Our iHeartRadio Music Awards are special because they’re truly reflective of what listeners love,” added Tom Poleman, president and chief programming officer for iHeartMedia.
