MANCHESTER, England (AP) -- Taylor Swift came out top at the 2024 MTV EMAs, walking away with best artist, best U.S. act, best live act and best video for "Fortnight" (featuring Post Malone). Swift, who is finishing up her Eras tour on the other side of the Atlantic, thanked the fans Sunday for the bounty of prizes via video message. The U.K. show opened with an acrobatic Benson Boone suspended in the air on a gold grand piano performing his viral hit "Beautiful Things" and latest release "Slow it Down." Boone also accepted his first EMA for best new act. South African newcomer Tyla gave Swift a run for her money picking up three awards.
