Rita Ora

Eminem opened the 2017 MTV Europe Music Awards with his Beyoncé collaboration Walk On Water. Alas, the queen was not in the building so Skylar Grey stepped in delivering the vocal. 1D alum and new father Liam Payne also impressed with a performance of his hit single Strip That Down and Camila Cabello hit the stage in a red ruffled bodysuit for a rendition of her Billboard Hot 100 No. 2 hit Havana.

And while the main awards were snapped up by Shawn Mendes (Best Song, Best Artist), Dua Lipa (Best New Act), Ed Sheeran (Best Live) and Kendrick Lamar (Best Video), the attention was on the red carpet. Rita Ora who hosted the event in no less than eight outfit changes turned up in a bathrobe. Not to be outdone though was Kesha followed by sartorial winners for the night Demi Lovato and Lana Del Rey. Best Australian Act went to Jessica Mauboy who wasn’t present to receive her award.
