MTV EMAs 2016: Justin Bieber, Martin Garrix lead winners - see the full list

twenty one pilots, Shawn Mendes and Lady Gaga also take trophies home.

This year's MTV European Music Awards (EMAs) was an eclectic affair, with 19 different acts taking home prizes in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

Unsurprisingly, Justin Bieber led the way with two award wins, including Best Song and Biggest Fans. Also bagging two gongs was Dutch act Martin Garrix, who was present in his home country to pick up victories in the Best Electronic and Best World Stage categories. Martin's collaborator Bebe Rexha hosted the event.

Lady Gaga, Shawn Mendes, Zara Larsson and twenty one pilots also picked up a duo of trophies each, statues that had this year been turned purple in memory of Prince.

Girl groups were also well represented on the winner's list, with Fifth Harmony taking home Best Pop while Little Mix were voted Best UK AND Ireland Act. As current holders of the Official Singles Chart Number 1, it is hard to disagree with that!
