The 2023 MTV Europe Music Awards have been canceled due to the ongoing conflict between Gaza and Israel. The show was scheduled for November 5th in Paris with performances by Reneé Rapp, Sabrina Carpenter, David Guetta, the Kid Laroi and Jung Kook (from BTS), among others. Taylor Swift was the most nominated artist this year with seven nods, followed by Olivia Rodrigo and SZA with six. Doja Cat, Måneskin, Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj had four nominations each. Producers said in the statement the decision to cancel the EMAs came out of “an abundance of caution.” The event will resume in 2024.
