We certainly “heart” Demi Lovato‘s red carpet look that they wore to the iHeartRadio Music Awards on May 27! The 28-year-old singer looked amazing in a long blue velvet blazer by Dundas, which she paired with the matching high-waisted trousers in the same luxurious color. All the little details enhanced this look, too: Demi’s chunky silver platforms by Giuseppe Zanotti, silver bolo necklace and feather earrings by Effy and Graziela Gems jewelry.

For their beauty look, Demi wore mesmerizing blue-silver eyeshadow in a smoky style and glossy nude lips. The Camp Rock star also wore their short pixie hair in teased layers, giving the over look a very punk rock vibe.

Later inside the show that was hosted at The Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, Demi performed a tribute for Elton John with H.E.R. and Brandi Carlile! Elton was presented with the iHeartRadio Icon Award by Lil Nas X and Chris Martin, and it was both a heartwarming and electrifying moment (thanks to Demi, H.E.R. and Brandi’s grand performance — you can see some GIFs from Demi’s solos below). Demi swapped their red carpet pantsuit for a more Elton John-esque pantsuit, complete with rhinestone sunglasses (which is Elton’s trademark accessory from Gucci).

There’s a long list of exciting nominations going into tonight’s award show! One of the award show’s most coveted honors, “Song of the Year,” will be nabbed by one of the following hits: The Weeknd‘s “Blinding Lights,” Post Malone‘s “Circles,” Dua Lipa‘s “Don’t Start Now,” DaBaby and Roddy Ricch‘s “ROCKSTAR” and Harry Styles‘ “Watermelon Sugar.” While Demi isn’t joining the list of nominees in 2021, they have been nominated for countless awards at past award shows since 2014 (the Disney Channel alum has received nine nominations in total over the years).

This also marks Demi’s first award show since coming out as non-binary! “Over the past year and a half, I have been doing some healing and self-reflective work, and through this work, I’ve had the revelation that I identify as non-binary. With that said, I’ll officially be changing my pronouns to they/them,” the “Sober” singer told their over 100 million Instagram followers in an IGTV video on May 19.

Demi went on to explain that the non-binary label “best represents” the “fluidity” they feel in their “gender expression,” adding, “[it] allows me to feel the most authentic and true to the person I know I am and am still discovering.” Demi shared this news with fans after making another important announcement in March: they are pansexual. “I’m so fluid now — and a part of the reason why I am so fluid is because I was super closeted off,” Demi explained on The Joe Rogan Experience at the time, adding that they “could be with anyone” (meaning a man, woman or someone who also identifies as non-binary).
