The 2020 MTV EMAs kicked off tonight - and while we might not have had the kind of packed red carpet we're used to, there were still some epic outfits on show. The ceremony was hosted by Little Mix - who rocked three outfits each, no less - with Jesy Nelson sadly missing due to a mystery illness.

The show was supposed to be hosted in Hungary, but due to the coronavirus pandemic stars have been Zooming in to present and accept awards from all over the world. And the same goes for the red carpet, with celebs posing in front of the MTV backdrop from a whole host of different locations, from London to LA to Rio de Janeiro. The show must go on, eh?

Check out some of the best outfits from the night...
