After 1996, the MTV EMA awards headed to London for the first time in 21 years on 12th Nov 2017. The red carpet was graced by some sensational artists from the likes of Shawn Mendes, Camila Cabello to Lana Del Ray. It was a star-studded night indeed and the performances were equally breathtaking too!
Rita Ora was the host of the evening and a great multi-tasker, as she performed live later during the evening. The legendary Eminem opened the night with his performance, performing his new single, Walk On Water. Amongst the performers, others were Shawn Mendes, Demi Lovato, Ed Sheeran, Liam Payne and Rita Ora.
Here are a few artists who took our breath away with their jaw-dropping appearance on the red carpet!
