Eva Longoria hosted and she was... alright I suppose. I mean, she was nothing special. She had 13 costume changes which is a bit ridiculous but whatever, she did her job and read from the auto que. Good enough.

Lady Gaga, who actually wasn't at the event walked away with 3 awards! She did appear several times to accept her awards. She was at one of her Monster Ball Shows, and the awards were brought to her on stage and she accepted them! It was rather amazing actually.
I'm very surprised Katy Perry won Best Video. Don't get me wrong it was a great video, but come on. It was against Lady Gaga's "Telephone"! Have you seen that? AMAZING is not even the word! I also can't believe she didn't win Best Live Act. Trust me, from personal experience she should have won that too.
Other than that congratulations to everyone who won!
So what did you think of this year's EMA's?
