Lady Gaga scooped the Best Female Award at the MTV Europe Music Awards tonight in Belfast.
And true to form, she took to the stage for a stunning performance which showed exactly why she beat Adele, Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, and Katy Perry to the post.
Gaga gave an epic rendition of Marry The Night, playing a satellite landing on the moon.

Huge flames behind her band added to the otherworldly atmosphere, and Gaga pressed herself against the sphere while black leather-clad dancers writhed in front of her.
The performance perfectly captured the lyrics of the song, which begin: 'I'm gonna marry the dark, I won't give up on my life, I'm a warrior queen, live passionately tonight.'

'I love you Little Monsters, until the end!'
