The 2015 iHeartRadio Music Awards was the second music award show presented by iHeartMedia's platform iHeartRadio and NBC. The awards were held on March 29, 2015, at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles and were hosted by Jamie Foxx.[1]

Taylor Swift won three awards, including Artist of the Year and Song of the Year,[2] while Justin Timberlake was presented with the Innovator Award.[3][4]

NBC's telecast of the iHeartRadio Music Awards matched the previous year's 1.7 rating with adults 18-49. Shifting from a May Thursday, it also took in 5.2 million viewers.[5] The awards generated more than 14 billion social media impressions throughout the promotional period of the show, nearly 75 percent more than last year’s 8.5 billion and almost triple that of the 2015 Academy Awards.[6]
