IS THERE ANY DOUBT that Bruno Mars is one of most exciting entertainers in the country?

Sunday, March 6, iHeartRadio honored Bruno Mars with its prestigious Innovator Award, a recognition previously given to Pharrell Williams, Justin Timberlake and U2. 

"I'm incredibly honored to be presented with this year's iHeartRadio Innovator Award," the Filipino/American pop star shared in a press release. "I'm excited to take the stage for the first time at the annual iHeartRadio Music Awards."

Before performing his biggest hits inside The Forum in Inglewood, the Grammy winner received a special tribute that included a few special words from close friend Big Sean.

"To be worthy of the iHeartRadio Innovator Award, you have to be willing to take chances," the rapper explained. "You gotta know what's cool before it's cool. To see things no one else can see. Bruno Mars does all that."

To top it off, Mars sang a medley of his songs from his newest album 24K Magic, causing the audience to rise to its feet, sing and dance along. Watch below:
