iHeartRadio Music Awards is a music awards show that celebrates music heard throughout the year across iHeartMedia radio stations nationwide and on iHeartRadio, iHeartMedia's digital music platform.[2] Founded by iHeartRadio in 2014, the event recognizes the most popular artists and music over the past year as determined by listeners.[3] The inaugural event was held on May 1, 2014 at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. The 2014 and 2015 iHeartRadio Music Awards were broadcast live on NBC. The fourth annual iHeartRadio Music Awards was held on March 5, 2017 at the Forum and for the second straight year, Turner networks simulcast the event on TBS, TNT and truTV.[4][5][6] The trophy is manufactured by the New York firm Society Awards.

Overview

The nominations are based on results from the iHeartRadio Chart. It includes listener feedback and performance data, according to airplay; digital streaming data from the iHeartRadio platform, including sales, social, online video data and tags from BigChampagne and Shazam. The iHeartRadio Countdown, the two-hour weekly program, highlights the top 20 contemporary hit radio songs in the iHeartRadio Chart. The latter is supplied and compiled by Mediabase.[7] In addition, every public-voting category (eight in 2017), includes social hashtags as the primary voting mechanism.[8]
