Get ready to see all your faves in one place at the 2022 iHeartRadio Music Awards. The annual award show is set to return this March at The Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, and so many stars have been confirmed to perform, including Jennifer Lopez and Megan Thee Stallion. As if we weren’t already excited enough, on March 21, iHeartRadio revealed artists like Lil Nas X and Olivia Rodrigo will make special appearances at the award show.

This update comes just days after Lil Nas X returned to social media on March 16 following a four-month reprieve from being the King of Twitter. He came back a major announcement: a teaser for an unreleased song called “Lean On My Body.”

He hasn’t announced a release date for the track yet (or his upcoming second album). Now that he’s been confirmed to appear at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, we’re crossing our fingers he’ll give us another sneak peek at his 2022 music plans.
