He hearts his reaction! Calvin Harris may have won Dance Artist of the Year at the iHeartRadio Music Awards on Sunday, April 3, but one of the losers in the category, friendly rival Diplo, was the real winner of the moment.
The Scottish DJ, 32, took to Twitter to share a clip from his triumph on Sunday night. In the video, presenter Julianne Hough announces Harris as the winner, and the audience — including his girlfriend, Taylor Swift — erupts in cheers. Swift stands up to give her boyfriend a hug and kiss, and Selena Gomez gives the “Sweet Nothing” hitmaker a high five.
Then, the cameras pan over to Diplo. The “Where Are U Now” DJ hilariously stands down the camera and goes, “What!” Harris added on Twitter: “LOL @diplo.” He also tweeted a thank you note to his fellow EDM superstars on Sunday night.
Thank u iheart & thank u @diplo @Skrillex @Zedd @majorlazer @davidguetta

Both Harris and Diplo have maintained a friendly relationship even after Diplo (real name: Thomas Pentz) memorably feuded with Swift in 2015.
“All I know is don’t ever get into a feud with Taylor Swift,” Diplo told GQ last December. “She has like 50 million people that will die for her. It’s like an army that’s worse than North Korea. You can’t step into that arena. That was something I was never prepared for. One of the biggest mistakes of my career was definitely f–king with her.”
Us Weekly was first to break the news in April 2015 that Swift and Harris were an item.
