Little Mix have been named as the hosts of this year's unique MTV EMAs ceremony.
Due to coronavirus, the regular stadium-level event is being reimagined as a "celebration of global music" with performances shot at multiple locations worldwide, including in Hungary - this year's official sponsor.
Four-piece girl group Little Mix will preside over proceedings from the ceremony's main base in London and will also perform new track 'Sweet Melody' from upcoming album Confetti.
"What an honour," the girls said in a statement. "To present the MTV EMAs is a dream, it's such a special event.
"We've always loved watching the spectacular performances and seeing who everyone has voted to win. The show will go on and we can't wait!"

Previously-announced performers at the ceremony, which will air on MTV UK from 8pm on November 8, include Sam Smith, Doja Cat, Zara Larsson and Maluma.
To mark the reveal of Little Mix as hosts, MTV also released an animated trailer featuring the girls as cartoon superheroes - watch below:
