Some of the music industry’s biggest names braved Berlin’s icy temperatures to attend the annual MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs) held at the O2 World.

Hosted by Katy Perry and featuring live performances by U2, Green Day, Jay-Z and Shakira, over 17,000 fans attended the show whilst an estimated 2 billion tuned in from home.

Clad in a black dress by David Koma, Beyoncé came on stage three times to accept awards for Best Song, Best Video and Best Female, whilst Lady Gaga (Best New Act) and Eminem (Best Male) accepted their awards through televised speeches.

The EMAs were a prelude to the Fall of the Wall festivities that will kick off this weekend, which will see the likes of Bon Jovi, Mikhail Gorbachev, U2, and Hillary Clinton celebrate the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.
