LAS VEGAS (AP) — The iHeart Radio Music Festival in Las Vegas is normally a time warp of a variety show of rock, pop, country and rap, and this year's show has been no different.

Duran Duran, Coldplay and The Killers performed Friday on the same stage as rapper Lil Wayne, soulful singer Sam Smith and country music's Kenny Chesney at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on the Las Vegas Strip for the festival's fifth year.

Flashbacks to the 1990s and early 2000s proved popular with a cameo by Third Eye Blind's Stephan Jenkins performing the band's 1997 single "Jumper" with pop singer Demi Lovato and short set by reggae artist Shaggy who sang his 2000 hit "Wasn't Me."

The two-day show continues Saturday with headlining performances from Jennifer Lopez, The Weeknd and Blake Shelton.
