The recognition stemmed from Kelce’s memorable cameo during Swift’s “Eras” Tour performance in London last June.
The iHeartRadio Music Awards, held at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, featured this fan-voted category for the first time.
Among 12 nominees, Kelce and Swift emerged victorious for his appearance in “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart”, beating out notable names such as Charli XCX and Lorde, Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B, and even Morgan Wallen, Kelce, and Patrick Mahomes—a nomination tied to Kelce’s previous surprise on-stage moment with Wallen.
