Shawn Mendes was the bigger winner at MTV EMA 2017 (November 12).

The ceremony, which took place at London’s SSE Arena Wembley, saw the Canadian artist pick up four trophies. He received the awards for Biggest Fans, Best Song for ‘There’s Nothing Holding Me Back’, Best Artist and Best Canadian Act.

 

Despite leading the nominations with six nods, Taylor Swift did not win any awards at the event. Her rumoured performance also did not come to fruition.

Instead, Eminem kicked off the ceremony with a performance of his new single, ‘Walk On Water’, while Stormzy performed ‘Big For Your Boots’ from a police car. The Killers, Kesha, Travis Scott, host Rita Ora, and David Guetta were among the other performers on the night.

U2 were crowned the Global Icon, with Bono singing a burst of Stormzy’s ‘Blinded By Your Grace’ as they collected the trophy.
