We're not exactly sure why this trio were looking so pleased with themselves at the press conference for the MTV European Music Awards this afternoon - Pete Wentz will need a footstool just to reach the podium, Joss Stone is starting to look a little bit like her almost-namesake Jocelyn Wildenstein, while Katy Perry will probably have to disguise her lack of presenting talent with a million outfit changes like she did last year.

Mr HM is off to Berlin for the ceremony tomorrow so will update you on the winners, but here are the nominees in the meantime...
