They were ready to dance, dance, dance, dance! Justin Timberlake, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran were just some of the biggest names to attend the 2017 iHeartRadio Music Awards at The Forum in Inglewood, California, on Sunday, March 5.

Timberlake, 36, came out victorious as he won Song of the Year for his Trolls theme song, “Can’t Stop the Feeling!” Other big wins included Adele for Best Female Artist of the Year, Justin Bieber for Best Male Artist of the Year and Bruno Mars, who received the coveted Innovator Award. (Sadly, Adele and Bieber were not in attendance.)

“We’ve come a long way. We used to play in bars not too far away from here, 200-seater rooms. You see these guys in the videos, you see these guys in the Super Bowl. This is my family right here,” Mars, 31, said during his acceptance speech.

“I do this all for you guys. You guys make me want to be a better songwriter, a better performer, a better entertainer. Innovator is a very heavy word [and] I’m so honored,” the four-time Grammy winner continued. “It’s a little ironic for me because I genuinely feel like I’m just getting started. So, buckle up. I don’t know where we’re going yet but we’re going — keep up!”
