Star Power Hits the Stage
Tonight, some of the biggest names in music are taking over ABC for the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball 2025. We’re talking about a lineup that includes Ed Sheeran, Renee Rapp, and Nelly, all performing live from Madison Square Garden in New York City and in Los Angeles.
But here’s the thing: this isn’t just your run-of-the-mill concert. John Sykes, President of Entertainment at iHeart Media, promises a backstage experience like no other. You’ll see your favorite artists beyond the stage. They’re not just performing; they’re also playing pranks on each other and exchanging gifts. This is a rare glimpse into the camaraderie that artists share, and it’s something you don’t typically get at a regular concert.
Sykes emphasizes the excitement, saying, “You not only see these great artists on the stage, but we take the cameras back into the dressing rooms and we get to see them preparing and also trading gifts themselves.” Imagine the surprise when one artist bursts into another’s dressing room, catching them off-guard. It’s all part of the fun that makes tonight’s event special.
For those ready to experience this unique blend of music and backstage antics, tune in tonight at 8 p.m. ET on ABC. You won’t want to miss it. And remember, ABC is owned by our parent company, Walt Disney. Mark your calendars and enjoy the show!
