Steve Schenberg, a.k.a. TikTok Husband, is checking award show after award show off his bucket list
On March 26, Schenberg, who went viral for sneaking his way into the Grammys last month, strolled into the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles — this time for the iHeart Radio Music Awards
There on behalf of PEOPLE, the Internet-famous, Chicago-based dad of four turned on his infamous Husband TikTok charm and commanded the red carpet like a pro
After deftly sneaking his way into the Grammys last month, TikToker Steve Schenberg (known as Husband TikTok to his over 600,000 followers online) found his next mark.On March 26, Schenberg made his way into the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles — but, unlike last time, where his first attempt at getting into a major music award show consisted of wild goose chases across L.A. and befriending surly security guards — Schenberg strutted onto the red carpet entirely credentialed up.Partnering with PEOPLE, the TikToker, who is known for being his wife's biggest fan but also for doing TikTok collaborations with celebrities from the Jonas Brothers to Landon Barker (who he famously "feuded" with), took to the red carpet to work his fatherly charm on the talent.
In behind-the-scenes videos (all available on the PEOPLE App), Schenberg takes viewers along with him as he documents his day leading up to and going into the show."I'm here at the Dolby Theatre," he says. "It's 8 a.m., Thursday morning, the morning of iHeart Radio Music Awards. Am I the first person to pick up my credentials? Yes. Does that make me an absolute nerd? Yes. Am I excited? Yes."

After walking the red carpet, Schenberg met up with PEOPLE's very own Abby Stern for the occasion, got his microphone and face sheet and prepped to take interviews."I've got the face sheet right here, this is going to tell me who's coming," Schenberg says to the camera at one point, before adding with a sheepish grin, "I know most of them... but there are a couple I don't."

"No T Swift yet, but I'll be looking," Schenberg adds, referencing singer Taylor Swift.The pop superstar ultimately took home a number of awards at the ceremony, including Artist of the Year, Pop Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, Pop Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Pop Song of the Year, Best Lyrics (fan-voted), Best Music Video (fan-voted) and Favorite Tour Style (fan-voted).As talent started making their way down the red carpet, the Chicago-based dad-of-four locked in, proving that if his corporate job, TikTok and a family to raise weren't the primary meals on his plate, he may have had a career in red carpet reporting.
Schenberg even reunited with Barker on the carpet, who affirmed that their beef was officially quashed, as he called Schenberg "the GOAT of all time."Schenberg also provided updates throughout the show, documenting his reaction to seeing Swift arrive, his midway-through-the-show thoughts and vibing with his fellow audience members."I'm leaving iHeart. This was the best night. PEOPLE, iHeart, thank you so much. Let's go have some fun," he says, before heading out for the night.To find out just who exactly Schenberg got to chat with on the iHeart Radio Music Awards red carpet, download the PEOPLE App.
