MTV Awards host Rita Ora has paid an emotional tribute to her friend Liam Payne on stage at the ceremony, saying he had the 'biggest heart'. Ora, who duetted with Payne on the song For You in 2018, became emotional as she spoke about the One Direction star towards the end of the ceremony. The 31-year-old pop star died after he fell from a third-floor balcony at the Casa Sur Hotel in Buenos Aires on 16 October.
It has also previously been held in Liverpool and Glasgow, but this is a first for Manchester and its new Co-op Live arena - which opened earlier this year, albeit three weeks later than planned due to several setbacks and cancellations. Last year's EMAs ceremony was planned for Paris, but was cancelled amid security concerns 'given the volatility of world events' following the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war.
