MAIN Arrow to Art & Culture Art & ... Arrow to Hollywood Pop Culture Arrow to MTV Europe Music Awards MTV Europe Music Awards

MTV Europe Music AwardsMusic stars the world over will gather in Berlin, Germany to celebrate the 16th annual MTV Europe Music Awards marking the fourth time that the Awards will be held in Germany — as the EMAs return to the original city where it was launched in 1994, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Watch for a splashy opening and various performances in front of the historic Brandeburg Gate this year as the EMAs also take advantage of the Berlin's newest addition to the music performance scene, the O2 World Arena.

Nominees are expected to be announced in late Summer 2009 with the live awards show presented in early November.

Fans who voted for Rick prove that even the MTV EMA's are not safe from the infamous rickroll, the prank most prevalent among YouTubers in which the 80's star's hit "Never Gonna Give You Up" becomes a bait-and-switch for a more popular video.
