The music event, scheduled for November 5 at Paris Nord Villepinte, will not move forward amid the escalating conflict in the Middle East.
The 2023 MTV Europe Music Awards has been canceled by Paramount PARA Global due to the “volatility of world events.”
The music event, scheduled for November 5 at Paris Nord Villepinte, will not move ahead due to the escalating conflict in the Middle East between Israel and Hamas.
Musical acts like BTS’ Jung Kook, Reneé Rapp, Sabrina Carpenter, Coi Leray, David Guetta, Rema, the Kid Laroi, PinkPantheress and more were scheduled to perform at the now-canceled award show, according to a recently released lineup shared by MTV.
“Given the volatility of world events, we have decided not to move forward with the 2023 MTV EMAs out of an abundance of caution for the thousands of employees, crew members, artists, fans and partners who travel from all corners of the world to bring the show to life,” a Paramount spokesperson said in a statement obtained by Variety.
