Bieber Dominates MTV Europe Music Awards

The Canadian singer Justin Bieber pays tribute to his fans after dominating the 2015 MTV Europe Music Awards in Milan.

JUSTIN Bieber has had a triumphant night at the MTV Europe Music Awards in Milan, winning five of the six awards he was nominated for.

The pop singer won the award for best male performer, best collaboration and best look – and was also named the best North American act.

Unsurprisingly, the 21-year-old – who has 68,8 million followers on Twitter – also walked away with the best fans award.

Bieber told the crowd: “It’s been a long couple of years. I just feel it’s awesome to be recognised for my music.”

One Direction took home best pop group, depriving the Canadian of a clean sweep at the prestigious awards ceremony.

This year’s EMAs were held at the Mediolanum Centre in Italy’s fashion capital.

Ed Sheeran had a busy night keeping the show on the road as host – not least because he won two awards for best live act and best world stage.

He also found the time to join Rudimental as they performed one of their latest hits, Lay It On Me.

It was a disappointing night for Taylor Swift, who only won one award despite being nominated in nine categories.

She won best song for her collaboration with Kendrick Lamar, Bad Blood, but was not on hand to make an acceptance speech.

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, who kick-started the show with their song Downtown, took home the best video award.

Winners in the EMAs are selected by fans from across the continent. SkyNews.com
