2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards Announces Nominees

The 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards has revealed this year’s list of nominees!

On January 22 local time, the iHeartRadio Music Awards officially announced its nominations for the upcoming award ceremony, which celebrates the most-played artists on iHeartRadio stations and the iHeartRadio app from the past year.

This year, iHeartRadio added a new Favorite K-Pop Dance Challenge award alongside the three K-pop categories that it added last year (K-Pop Artist of the Year, K-Pop Song of the Year, and Best New Artist [K-Pop]).

BTS’s Jimin racked up a total of four nominations this year: in addition to K-Pop Artist of the Year, K-Pop Song of the Year (for “Who”), and Best Lyrics (also for “Who”), Jimin is nominated together with Jungkook for Favorite On Screen (for their travel variety show “Are You Sure?!”). KATSEYE is also nominated in the Favorite On Screen category (for their documentary “Pop Star Academy: KATSEYE”).

Meanwhile, BLACKPINK’s Rosé and Bruno Mars’ “APT.” is in the running for Best Music Video.
