The guys of Big Time Rush made sure everyone was in attendance on the red carpet at the 2022 iHeartRadio Music Awards at The Shrine Auditorium on Tuesday (March 22) in Los Angeles.
Carlos is out of town with his family and earlier in the week, he shared a few photos of their massive amounts of luggage.
“Welp – the 6 month adventure is officially underway. We’ve survived the first leg of travel with all our bags… it gets easier from here right? #lavidapenavega,” he captioned his post on Instagram.
Also seen at the iHeartRadio Music Awards were another boy band – Why Don’t We!
Both Big Time Rush (Rushers) and Why Don’t We (Limelights) fans are nominated for Best Fan Army at the show, among some stiff competition – Swifties, Selenators, Arianators, Beliebers, BTSARMY, Hotties, Harries, Livies and Louies.
Don’t forget – Big Time Rush is going on tour this summer. See the dates here!

“We are so thankful to be able to release new music for our fans after they have been such an incredible support system for us throughout the past five years as a band. ‘Love Back’ is the start of our most authentic chapter yet, and we can’t wait for what’s next,” the guys said in a statement.
The same day the song was released, Why Don’t We are putting on their first live, in-person performance for fans in almost two years, and are filming it for the upcoming music video.
Why Don’t We hand delivered tickets to the show to fans, giving back to some of their biggest supporters just days after celebrating the group’s five year anniversary.
The guys of Why Don’t We are speaking out about abuse they’ve been through from their management.
In a lengthy letter shared to fans on Thursday (September 9), Corbyn Besson, Daniel Seavey, Jack Avery, Jonah Marais and Zach Herron opened up about what they’ve been going through, addressing what’s been already out for the first time.
That same day, it was revealed that they also filed a petition with the California Labor Commission, to get their contract with their manager and the management company thrown out.
“Surprise… #SlowDownOutNow,” the guys shared on Twitter.
“I hope this song brings you back to all the good times you’ve had, and makes you wanna have a million more #SlowDownOutNow,” Corbyn added on his own account.
The new song comes just after the second episode of the guys’ docu-series with YouTube, 30 Days With, was released. The web series follows the band “as they open up about their evolution, coping with the global pandemic while making music, music videos and everything that went into the creation of their highly anticipated album, The Good Times and The Bad Ones.” You can watch the episodes on their YouTube channel!
The song is the second track from the band’s upcoming second album The Good Times and The Bad Ones, which is out on January 15th.
“Lotus Inn music video out now 🥳 Congrats to these talented boyz @whydontwemusic it was so fun to apart of the vid so go check it out 🖤,” Tessa wrote on Instagram.
“‘Lotus Inn’ is a song we wrote to end our live show with, it has that epic encore feeling,” Jonah says. “We were inspired by the ‘lotus-eaters’ in ‘The Odyssey,’ and a scene from the first ‘Percy Jackson’ book/movie (‘The Lightning Thief’) where they get stuck in ‘The Lotus Hotel and Casino’ – indulging in lotus flowers and drinks before they realize a few hours had actually gone on for days. Our lyric ‘staying at the Lotus Inn’ captures the idea that while partying can be a hell of a time, it can definitely side track you.”
“These last few years have been an absolute whirlwind for us. From moving out to LA as a band and touring the world, to falling in and out of love, and now being locked inside for months…” they wrote on Instagram.
“Life has been amazing, and equally tough. But you have to do your best to make something beautiful out of it all, so that’s what we did. We put everything into this album. We hope it helps you enjoy the good times and push through the bad ones. You can pre-order ‘The Good Times and The Bad Ones’ now and we’ll see you on @theellenshow tomorrow. Link in our bio.”
“Writing and co-producing our own music has been one of the most rewarding experiences for us,” Corbyn said in a statement. “In the past four years we’ve become confident enough to reinvent ourselves, becoming the band we always hoped to be.”
“It was time to do this ourselves,” Daniel added. “These are our ideas, melodies, and thoughts.”
Pre-order The Good Times and The Bad Onesright here!
Why Don’t We are also set to appear on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Thursday (November 12), to perform their single “Fallin’,” but you can watch it right here now!
