BTS Win Big At MTV EMAs

MTV EMAs

South Korean Boy Band BTS were the big winners at the 2020 MTV Europe Music Awards.

The ceremony was held on Sunday and aired virtually due to the Coronavirus pandemic, like other award shows this year. Little Mix hosted the event, which was filmed in various locations including London and Budapest.

BTS won four of the five EMAs they were nominated for. They won Best Group for the third year in a row.

“We’ll keep working hard to be a group that can touch the hearts of people and give them hope through music,” member RM said during their acceptance speech.

Cardi B, Lady Gaga, Coldplay, Karol G, Hayley Williams and YUNGBLUD also won awards.

Little Mix performed their new single, Sweet Melody, and other performers included Alicia Keys, Doja Cat, Sam Smith and Zara Larsson.

DJ Khaled, Bebe Rexha and Rita Ora made special appearances and several celebrities showed off their red carpet looks at a pre-show event held last week.
