Taylor Swift was the big winner at Sunday night’s MTV Europe Music Awards in Frankfurt after picking up three awards.
Wiping the floor with the competition, Taylor Swift, 22, made off with gongs for Best Female Act, Best Live Act and Best Look.
Even though Kanye West was there to support girlfriend Kim Kardashian, he didn’t invade the stage like he did when Taylor Swift won an MTV award in 2009.
Not only did the star win three awards but she also wowed the audience with her energetic circus-inspired performance, dressed as a ringmaster.
Taylor Swift was only matched in her success by teen pop sensation Justin Bieber who won Best Male Act, Best Pop Act and Best World Stage, although he couldn’t be at the ceremony due to a concert in Brooklyn on Monday.
Carly Rae Jepsen was also a big winner, picking up awards for Best Song and Best Push.
The 26-year-old Call Me Maybe hitmaker took to the stage perform and got the crowd going with a spot of crowd-surfing.
One Direction couldn’t be at the awards either, as they were still in LA on promotional duties, although they won awards for Best New Act and Biggest Fans.
Lana Del Rey showed up to present Taylor Swift with an award and walked away with one of her own, for Best Alternative Act.
South Korean pop sensation PSY won the award for Best Video, while Nicki Minaj, who couldn’t be there, won Best Hip Hop Act.
Taylor Swift closed the show in true style with a show-stopping performance of her hit We Are Never Getting Back Together.
Dressed as a circus ringmaster, the star danced under a shower of streamers and fireworks.
Taking to Twitter after the ceremony, Taylor Swift wrote: “Such an insane night!!! You guys won me 3 EMAs! Best female, best live act, best look. Can’t even begin to thank you enough. I love you!!.”
