Raye, Taylor Swift, Tyla, Liam Gallagher and more win at 2024 MTV EMAs in Manchester

Taylor Swift was the big winner at the 2024 MTV EMAs.

The US star, who did not attend the ceremony in Manchester, won Best Video with Fortnight (feat. Post Malone), plus Best Artist, Best Live and Best US Act.

Former Music Week cover star Tyla won her first ever MTV EMAs for Best Afrobeats, Best R&B and Best African Act.

Rita Ora, who hosted the ceremony, paid tribute to Liam Payne during a moment of remembrance for the artist who died last month.

The show was opened by Benson Boone, who triumphed in the Best New category. Other performers at Manchester’s Co-op Live last night (November 11) included Tyla, The Warning, Shawn Mendes, Le Sserafim (Best Push) and Peso Pluma, who continued his MTV EMAs winning streak with a Best Latin win. 

Best UK & Ireland Act winner Raye played at the ceremony with a 30-strong choir and a 13-piece live band. It followed her multiple Grammy nominations days earlier.

Best Song went to Sabrina Carpenter for her hit Espresso, while other winners included Ariana Grande (Best Pop), Liam Gallagher (Best Rock), Calvin Harris (Best Electronic), Imagine Dragons (Best Alternative), Eminem (Best Hip-Hop), Jimin (Best K-Pop) plus Lisa and Rosalía (Best Collaboration). 

Busta Rhymes received the 2024 MTV EMAs Global Icon Award from British rapper Little Simz and performed a medley of hits. 

Closing out the show, the inaugural 2024 MTV EMA Pop Pioneer recipients Pet Shop Boys marked their 40th anniversary alongside local string players the Manchester Camerata
