His wider run of awards includes best new artist at the 2025 VMAs, the MTV Video Music Awards. He was nominated for best new artist at the Grammys in February. In March he won four awards at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, including song of the year, which goes to the writers of the year's most successful song.
The night also has a line-up of performers. Jamie Miller opens the show with the U.S. television debut of "Babydoll." Ashe will perform "Stop the Wedding!" and Sofi Tukker will perform "Tsunami."
The show's King of Comedy Award, its honour for a comedy star, goes this year to Chris Pratt. Past winners include Adam Sandler in 2023 and Jack Black in 2025.

For families planning a Saturday evening, the timing is the simple part. The broadcast starts at 8:00 p.m. ET and runs until 9:30 p.m. ET, and Warren will be the one welcoming everyone in.
