Celebrating the international artists that have dominated the music charts over the last year, the MTV EMAs was a star-studded celebrity bash hosted by celebrity power couple of the moment, Rita Ora and Taika Waititi.
The normally publicity shy couple – who are rumoured to have quietly tied the knot earlier this year – led the show, which honoured stars including Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj and Harry Styles.
Taking place in Düsseldorf, Germany for the sixth year running, the ceremony featured live performances by acts including Stormzy, Lewis Capaldi and Bebe Rexha, and bands Gorillaz, Muse and Kalush Orchestra.
