This year’s EMAs show saw the awards return to live broadcasting following the virtual ceremony in 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Saweetie served as host for this year’s ceremony, taking over from Little Mix who presented last year.
Teasing what to expect from the star-studded show, the rapper said in a statement: ‘Anything can happen at the MTV EMAs. Are you ready?’ before she promised there would be ‘surprises’ in store.
Speaking about hosting, she told MTV: ‘I think MTV is fun. It’s innovative, it’s out the box. And that’s the type of artist I am. So when I got the call to do it, it was a no brainer.’
Among those performing on the night include Saweetie herself along with Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber, Kim Petras, Maluma, girl in red, Imagine Dragons and Måneskin.

BTS were the big winners at this year’s ceremony, taking home four awards including Best Pop, Best K-Pop, Biggest Group and Biggest Fans.
Ed also enjoyed a triumphant night at the Laszlo Papp Budapest Sports Arena, where he won the Best Artist and Best Song accolades.
The 30-year-old pop star was given the Best Song gong for his hit single Bad Habits, which features on his recently-released album ‘=’.
Other big-name winners included Nicki Minaj, who was named the winner of the Best Hip Hop accolade.
David Guetta won the Best Electronic crown at the awards ceremony in the Hungarian capital, while Yungblud was named the Best Alternative artist.
Saweetie – who changed outfits throughout the night and performed on stage – also claimed the Best New prize.
In her acceptance speech, the My Type hitmaker said: ‘Thank you to my team who have been working non-stop 24 hours, seven days a week. We work non-stop, really. And it’s been paying off.
‘I am so grateful to my fans, who have been supporting me. Y’all been riding with me since I’ve been rapping in my car.’

However, Justin Bieber – who had as many as eight nominations – didn’t win any awards on the night.
MTV reportedly planned on using the event to ‘stand in solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community in Hungary and around the world’ after the country passed a law in June banning content deemed to promote homosexuality and gender change on primtime television.
In an internal memo, obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, Chris McCarthy, president and CEO of MTV Entertainment Group Worldwide said the decision to keep the ceremony in Hungary would likely come as a surprise to many.
Star: Justin has emerged as the frontrunner for this year’s awards as he has received a total of eight nominations
Success: Ed Sheeran received five nominations each, including ‘Best Pop’ and ‘Best Song’
He said: ”I have to be honest with you, as a gay man, my personal emotions got the better of me.
‘After learning this legislation passed, my knee-jerk reaction was that we should move the event to another country.
‘However, after my emotions cooled down, I picked up the phone to connect with global LGBTQ+ advocates like All Out, got feedback from LGBTQ+ advocates in Hungary, spoke with Raffaele, Bruce and other team members from around the world, and consulted our LGBTQ+ employee resource group, Emerge.
