2020 MTV Europe Music Awards complete list of winners
Winners of the 2020 edition of the MTV Europe Music Awards were announced live on MTV this Sunday, November 8, 2020.
As a result of the Coronavirus pandemic, the 27th annual edition was filmed in various locations across the world, including London and Budapest, Hungary, with performances by Alicia Keys, DaBaby, Maluma, Sam Smith, Doja Cat, Zara Larsson, Yungblud, and Little Mix.
British pop quartet Little Mix steered the affairs as hosts of the show which had Lady Gaga lead the pack with seven nominations, followed by BTS and Justin Bieber with five nods each, and Cardi B with three.
BTS were the biggest winners on the night, walking home with 4 awards out of the 5 nominations the group had.
Trivia: MTV Europe Music Awards Fun Facts:
- Record holders for most career EMA wins include Justin Bieber with 20, followed by Eminem with 15, and Lady Gaga with 10.
- Metallica caused a backstage uproar at the 1996 EMAs when they performed the songs “So What?” instead of their scheduled single, “King Nothing”. The expletive-laden “So What?” was heard unedited during the live telecast, but was deleted in all later rebroadcasts.
- The most dazzling entrance ever at the EMAs happened during the show in 2000, when Jennifer Lopez entered the stage from the ceiling in a specially built plane to perform “Love Don’t Cost a Thing”.
- Despite winning the award for Best Hip-Hop at the 2006 awards, Kanye West was so disappointed at not winning for Best Video that he crashed the stage in protest. A tirade quickly followed in which Kanye said he should have won the prize for his video “Touch the Sky” because it “cost a million dollars, Pamela Anderson was in it. I was jumping across canyons!”
- More controversy erupted at the 2013 EMAs when Miley Cyrus appeared to light up a joint on stage after accepting the Best Video Award for “Wrecking Ball”.
