In addition, Justin Timberlake gets to present Best Tour to Taylor Swift and U2 present the Innovator Award by Pharrell Williams. Plus, Jason Derulo gets to be the host and perform If It Ain't Love. However, Justin Bieber won Best Fan Army nominee for Beliebers and Dance Song of the Year for Where Are U Now with Skrillex & Diplo. ARGH! Why pop music still play Justin Bieber? I'm sick of Justin Bieber. Anyway, I'm happy to see Taylor Swift won. Yay.

With Taylor Swift won 4 IHeartRadio Music Awards nominees, she might be able to announce her 10th anniversary singles collection album this summer. Then she'll be releasing her 2016 single for summer 2016 and her first complete greatest hits album this fall. Sounds like fun. Especially Taylor Swift will remember this nomination at the 2016 IHRMA.

What do you think? Are you happy that Taylor Swift won 4 nominees at the 2016 IHeartRadio Music Awards? Sound off below!
