Taylor Swift has nine iHeartRadio Music Award nominations and will attend the March 26 ceremony, iHeartRadio confirmed.
Swifties may cry their eyes violet when Taylor Swift makes a special in-person appearance at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards.
Organizers made the announcement ahead of the March 26 ceremony, which will be held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. It will air live from 8 to 10 p.m. ET on FOX (tape-delayed PT), with a simultaneous broadcast across iHeartMedia radio stations nationwide and on the iHeartRadio app.
Swift leads all artists with nine nominations:
The nominations cap a dominant stretch for Swift, who recently surpassed her own record as "The Fate of Ophelia" overtook "Anti-Hero" to become her longest-running No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The track has spent nine nonconsecutive weeks atop the chart, fueled by continued streaming and fan engagement. Meanwhile, her album "The Life of a Showgirl" held the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 for 12 weeks.
Swift missed last year's ceremony, where she received the iHeartRadio Tour of the Century Award for the Eras Tour. Swift delivering a pre-recorded acceptance and performance of "Mirrorball," filmed during the tour's opening weekend in Glendale, Arizona.
