MTV EMA Winner Predictions!

8/11/2017

0 Comments

 
This weekend the MTV EMAs (European Music Awards) are coming to London for the first time in 21 years. The event will take place at Wembley Arena, with a massive lineup set to take the stage. I'm lucky enough to be attending the EMAs, so I thought before the event I'll make my winner predictions!

BEST US ACT
Bruno Mars
DJ Khaled
Kendrick Lamar
Taylor Swift
Fifth Harmony

There is no doubt in my mind that Taylor will be taking this award home. The hype surrounding the release of her new album ​Reputation has been massive, and I think Taylor's comeback has been brilliant.

BEST CANADIAN ACT
Alessia Cara
Drake
Justin Bieber
Shawn Mendes
The Weeknd

This category is tough because all artists are brilliant. I am a massive fan of The Weeknd and would like to see him get this award, however the success that Shawn has had in the past few years at such a young age has been amazing. Arguably Bieber deserves it just as much as Mendes, but I think Shawn could win this one.

BEST SONG
Clean Bandit - Rockabye ft. Sean Paul & Anne-Marie
DJ Khaled - Wild Thoughts ft. Rihanna, Bryson Tiller
Ed Sheeran – Shape of You
Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee - Despacito (Remix) ft. Justin Bieber
Shawn Mendes - There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back

Shape of You is one of my favourite songs released in 2017 (particularly love the Stormzy remix). This song was a brilliant comeback for Sheeran, and he definitely deserves to win this award.

BEST ARTIST
Ariana Grande
Ed Sheeran
Kendrick Lamar
Miley Cyrus
Shawn Mendes
Taylor Swift

For this category there is one clear winner in my head, and that's Ariana. The horrific Manchester arena bombing in May this year was heartbreaking, and the fact that only a few weeks later Ariana put on a One Love Manchester benefit concert to raise money for the victims, was nothing but inspiring. This year Ariana has had to face pain and heartbreak that other artists have never had to go through, and the fact that she has shown strength and love throughout it all proves that she is indeed the best artist.

BEST LOOK
Dua Lipa
Harry Styles
Rita Ora
Taylor Swift
ZAYN

This category is another hard one because all nominees look great 24/7! However I think that Zayn may have this one in the bag...

BEST NEW
Dua Lipa
Julia Michaels
Khalid
KYLE
Rag'n'Bone Man

New Rules has been one of the biggest songs this year, so Dua definitely deserves this award!

BEST POP
Camila Cabello
Demi Lovato
Miley Cyrus
Shawn Mendes
Taylor Swift

Another tough category, however because of the amount of success Taylor has had, I think she has a high chance of winning this award.

BEST VIDEO
Foo Fighters - Run
Katy Perry - Bon Appétit ft. Migos
Kendrick Lamar - HUMBLE.
KYLE – iSpy ft. Lil Yachty
Taylor Swift - Look What You Made Me Do

I thought that the Look What You Made Me Do video was brilliant because of the last scene. Seeing Taylor recreate all of her past looks was brilliant, and I definitely think it should win an EMA!

BEST LIVE
Bruno Mars
Coldplay
Ed Sheeran
Eminem
U2

One of my favourite acts to see live is Coldplay because you always get such a beautiful show. The other nominees in this category are all great, but I personally love seeing Coldplay live and think they deserve this award.

BEST ELECTRONIC
Calvin Harris
David Guetta
Major Lazer
Martin Garrix
The Chainsmokers

I think The Chainsmokers have a high chance of winning this award because of the amount of success they've had over the past year, however Guetta is one of the best DJs in my opinion, and should win this award!

BEST ROCK
Coldplay
Foo Fighters
Royal Blood
The Killers
U2

Coldplay are one of my favourite acts, and should definitely be winning this award. However all acts are brilliant, so it's quite hard to predict. 

BEST HIP HOP
Drake
Eminem
Future
Kendrick Lamar
Post Malone

This category is easy for me. Eminem is legendary and should definitely win this award.

BEST ALTERNATIVE
Imagine Dragons
Lana Del Rey
Lorde
The xx
Thirty Seconds To Mars

I think this award will be between Lana Del Rey and Lorde, however I think Lorde could be the overall winner...

BIGGEST FANS
Ariana Grande
Justin Bieber
Katy Perry
Shawn Mendes
Taylor Swift

This category is tough because each fanbase is very dedicated to their idol. The artist I would love to see win this is Ariana, and I think she has a very high chance. However I think Taylor Swift also has quite a high chance as well.

BEST PUSH
Hailee Steinfeld
Jon Bellion
Julia Michaels
Kacy Hill
Khalid
KYLE
Noah Cyrus
Petite Meller
Rag'n'Bone Man
SZA
The Head And The Heart

Rag'n'Bone Man has such a gorgeous voice and he is such a unique artist! While other artists in this category have bigger fanbases, I think Rag'n'Bone Man is the most deserving.

BEST WORLD STAGE
Steve Aoki – Live from Isle of MTV Malta 2016
Kings of Leon – Live from Oude Luxor Theatre, Rotterdam, The Netherlands 2016
Tomorrowland 2017
DNCE – Live from Isle of MTV Malta 2017
The Chainsmokers – Live from Isle of MTV Malta 2017
Foo Fighters – Live from Barcelona, Spain 2017

I saw a lot about Tomorrowland on social media this year and it looked incredible! While I haven't been to any of the nominated shows and performances, from what I've seen online I think Tomorrowland could win.

Make sure you watch the MTV EMAs this Sunday (November 12th) on MTV!
