Justin Bieber dominates MTV European Music Awards

Justin Bieber secured his music comeback at the MTV European Music Awards on Sunday (25Oct15) by becoming the biggest winner of the night with five prizes.

The Baby singer, who revived his music career earlier this year (15), was the first winner of the night, picking up the Best Male accolade for the sixth consecutive time.

He continued his successful streak with awards for Biggest Fans, Best Worldwide Act: North America, Best Look and Best Collaboration for his track Where Are U Now featuring Skrillex and Diplo.

Picking up the collaboration prize, Bieber said, "This has been an okay night for me. First of all I wanted to say Skrillex and Diplo, man, those guys are so talented and really helped me take my music to the next level so I just to say thank you to Skrillex and Diplo.

"Once again, thank you to my mum and dad, my brother and sister, I miss you so much, I just want to give you a big old kiss and a hug. I can never not thank everybody in this audience, and everybody around the world. I'm shaking a little bit because I'm just like, 'this is so awesome!' I'm done. Thank you guys, you're awesome."

Ed Sheeran and Shawn Mendes both scored two awards. The British singer, who co-hosted the ceremony with actress/DJ Ruby Rose, won Best Live Act and Best World Stage for his performances and Mendes took home gongs for Best Push Act and Best New Act.

Taylor Swift had been predicted as the big winner as she lead the nominations with nine, but she only went home with one prize for Best Song for Bad Blood, featuring Kendrick Lamar.
