The iHeartRadio Music Awards should be called the iHeartTaylorSwift Awards.

The pop singer cleaned house at the show Sunday, winning artist of the year and song of the year for "Shake It Off," and even assisted Madonna by strumming her guitar onstage as while the pop icon sang a new song.

"More than anything in the world, I just hope that any of the fans watching know how much I adore you ... we've gotten closer and closer with each year, not further apart," a glossy-eyed Swift said at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. "Like, you make me so happy."

The pop star also won best lyrics for her another hit song, "Blank Space."

The second annual iHeartRadio Music Awards, which was hosted by Jamie Foxx, also featured Rihanna, Justin Timberlake, Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Hudson, Nate Reuss, Florida Georgia Line, Jason Aldean, Nick Jonas and Iggy Azalea.
