It was a big night at the iHeartRadio Music Awards Alex Warren. The singer-songwriter was honored as this year’s Breakthrough Artist. The big win deserved a great acceptance speech, and Warren delivered. The 25-year-old ‘Fever Dream’ singer’s speech left everyone emotional as she dedicated her award to her late parents.
Alex Warren couldn’t believe the feat
“I really hope I don’t crush it,” the “Ordinary” singer joked. “To think about three years ago I was in the crowd watching a band do this and now to be performing and standing on stage is a strange feeling.”Warren joked that he “wasn’t a popular kid growing up” and “probably would have been voted out by the whole school and probably some faculty members to not be a breakout artist.”
Inspirational words for fans from Alex Warren
“The reason I’m telling you this is, I hope there’s somebody at home watching this right now who feels like they’re not good enough or nobody believes, that I can confirm,” Warren continued. “I really do. You’re going to be something amazing.”He then thanked those close to him, including his wife, Kouvr Annon. “Thanks to my amazing wife, I would still be homeless if it wasn’t for you,” Warren said, before thanking his band and his record label, Atlantic Records.

“And finally, to God and my parents. I really hope so, I know you’re watching below. Can I sing a lyric loud enough for you to hear, and I love you so much, so much and thank you. You’re the reason I’m the man I am. This is for you.”Warren was nominated for eight iHeartRadio Music Awards this year, tied with Bad Bunny and Sabrina Carpenter for second most nominations at this year’s awards show. The 25-year-old singer walked away with four awards.
