Press Release
The epic event, which aired on MTV in 180 countries, featured electrifying performances from today’s hottest stars and honored some of the world’s biggest artists while also celebrating music, love and equality.
Ed Sheeran took Best Artist and Best Song for Bad Habits. Lil Nas X was awarded Best Video for MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name),and BTS snagged the most awards with four including Best Pop, Best K-Pop, Best Group, and Biggest Fans.
First-time EMA winners Måneskin took home Best Rock, while show host and performer Saweetie won Best New. Nicki Minaj earned a top award with Best Hip-Hop, Olivia Rodrigo was awarded Best Push, Maluma won Best Latin, and YUNGBLUD snagged the award for Best Alternative. The Best Collaboration award went to Doja Cat ft. SZA for Kiss Me More, while David Guetta nabbed Best Electronic, and Billie Eilish was honored with Video for Good.
Deriving inspiration from the host city’s popular thermal spas and the Danube River, which runs through Budapest, the show was surrounded by water with stages that appeared to be floating. Grammy Award-winning global superstar Ed Sheeran, who earned top awards for Best Artist, and Best Song, opened the night surrounded by neon graffiti to perform a lively rendition of his latest single, Overpass Graffiti. Later in the show, the British singer-songwriter performed his chart-topping hit Shivers.
Best New award recipient and EMA host Saweetie brought the fashion and the funny with unforgettable show moments including basking by a pool with champagne in a palm tree-lined oasis, interacting with Squid Games-inspired soldiers in hot pink suits and MTV-branded masks, chatting virtually with friend and Brazilian singer Anitta, and riding a skateboard. Descending from the sky in a glittery snowflake, she also performed a medley of her hits Best Friend, Tap In and OUT OUT.
Global Latin superstar Maluma and Best Latin winner brought the heat for the world premiere performance of his new single MAMA TETEMA. Tanzanian singer Rayvanny and a team of dancers joined him on stage for the high-energy performance set in a club and featuring rain.
Imagine Dragons returned to the EMAs for the debut of their new single Enemy. Immersed in a flood of laser lights, the best-selling rock band rocked the stage alongside Grammy-nominated rapper and artist J.I.D and a squad of dancers.
With a giant MAMMAMIA sign shooting off pyrotechnics, first-time EMA performers and Best Rock winners Måneskin lit up the stage with a rousing rendition of their hit single MAMMAMIA. The Italian rock band was donned in black and gold with lead singer Damiano David sporting a glittery pair of leather briefs.
Kim Petras made her EMAs debut and EMAs history as the first trans artist to perform at the show. With a giant coconut on the stage and clad in a green latex dress with a black bodysuit underneath, the international pop star brought the sexy and the camp with a medley of two new unreleased songs, Coconuts, and Hit It From The Back. British rising star Griff made her EMA debut performing One Night with a shadow dancer and dancer dressed in a mirror ensemble.
Norwegian, indie pop musician, and MTV PUSH artist, girl in red made her EMA debut performing her hit single Serotonin from her internationally charting debut album, if i could make it go quiet. Initially performing inside a grey house, the beanie-wearing artist went out to get closer to the crowd before the house lifted into the air off the stage.
World Stage headliners OneRepublic performed a lively rendition of their single Run in front of a sold-out crowd at Heroes Square in Budapest complete with a fireworks finale.
Multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter, and Best Alternative award winner YUNGBLUD closed the night with a high-octane, pyrotechnics-filled performance of his latest single fleabag. During the electrifying show, people fell from the sky, and the stage was trashed by the performer who at one point kissed his bass player.
