As a lifestyle expert with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that watching Mabel and Neneh Cherry’s daughter, Mabel, grace the stage at this year’s MTV EMAs is nothing short of impressive. The young starlet has certainly inherited her mother’s talent for music, and it’s a joy to see her making waves in the industry.


Mabel wore an eccentric plaid gown while walking the red carpet at the MTV Europe Music Awards with stylish mom, Neneh Cherry, in Manchester on Sunday evening.

As a diehard admirer, I couldn’t help but notice the radiant elegance of the 28-year-old melody queen, who was every bit as chic as ever in her high-neck ensemble. Accompanying her was none other than my idol, my Swedish singer mom Neneh, who graced the event at a ripe and radiant 60 years of age.

Mabel, just like her mother, has chosen music as her path, and both of them appeared lively and joyful as they made a vibrant entrance for the gathering hand-in-hand.

Neneh flaunted her elegant fashion sense in a roomy beige suit, complemented by a crisp white blouse.

She completed her look with chunky, shiny black shoes and wore her dark tresses pulled back.

Neneh hails from Sweden and is a well-known vocalist with six studio albums to her name. Interestingly, her debut album, “Raw Like Sushi,” peaked at number three on the UK Albums chart, mirroring the same position achieved by one of her own offspring’s releases.

She’s been given a Grammy nomination and holds two Brit Awards, with her daughter Mabel making impressive strides but not quite matching her mother Neneh’s achievements just yet.

Her debut single Finders Keepers, released in 2017, reached number eight on the UK Singles Chart.

Two years after this, her album “High Expectations” was launched, debuting at third place on the Albums Chart. Later, it achieved platinum status.

2020 marked the third year since her debut, and she was awarded the Brit Award for Best British Female Solo Artist.

This year, Rita Ora became the first individual to serve as the host for the MTV European Music Awards three times, during an illustrious event held at the Co-op Live Arena in Manchester, a venue filled with celebrities.

The event, which was scheduled for Paris last year, had to be called off because of heightened security concerns related to the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

In a turn of events, Taylor Swift is at the helm of the 2024 nominations, garnering a total of seven nods. On the other hand, Raye, Shawn Mendes, and Teddy Swims are all set to captivate audiences of around 20,000 fans with their performances.

During the broadcast, it is said that the show’s host Rita will likely honor her deceased friend and former One Direction bandmate Liam Payne, who passed away tragically at the age of 31 just last month.

One member of the band One Direction plunged approximately 45 feet from the third level onto the courtyard at the Casa Sur Hotel in Buenos Aires.

According to the source, the tribute might encompass a musical rendition of Liam’s popular songs or a retrospective video highlighting his career in entertainment.

They shared with The Sun that they will soon draft formal proposals for upcoming actions. While it hasn’t been officially confirmed yet, Rita is set to host this year’s awards and will play a role in any decisions MTV makes.

For a long time, she and Liam were very connected, rising through their careers side by side. It’s only natural that she feels heartbroken following his death.

Taylor Swift, who has already won 15 MTV EMAs, is nominated in several categories this year: Best Artist, Best Video, Best Pop, Best Live Performance, and Best Fans. Additionally, she is also nominated for Best Collaboration for her single “Fortnite” with Post Malone, which is also up for the Best Video category as part of her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department.

However, despite strong competition from artists like Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, Charli XCX, and Sabrina Carpenter – each having secured five nominations across categories including Best Song, Best Video, and Best Artist – she continues to contend for recognition on the night.

Four nominations apiece have been given to Ayra Starr, Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar, LISA, while first-timers Chappell Roan and Tyla also received nominations.

19 candidates stand the opportunity to claim their inaugural MTV EMA award this year, with some notable names in contention: Kehlani and Tinashe (Best R&B), Disclosure and Fred Again.. (Best Electronic), Fontaines D.C. (Best Alternative), The Last Dinner Party (Best New), and BTS’ Jimin (Best K-Pop). This is Jimin’s first nomination as a solo artist.

In other categories, MTV Push’s top contenders engage in competition, with nominees like Flyana Boss, Laufey, Shaboozey, The Warning, Victoria Monét, as well as LE SSERAFIM and Teddy Swims, all vying for the Best New award.

As a die-hard music enthusiast, I can hardly contain my excitement! With the MTV EMAs making their way to Manchester, it feels like a dream come true for city fans like myself. The Best Rock category is stacked with heavyweights – Liam Gallagher, Bon Jovi, Coldplay, Green Day, Kings of Leon, Lenny Kravitz, and The Killers! I can hardly wait to see who takes the crown in this epic showdown!

Before the event, Rita excitedly expressed: “I’m thrilled beyond belief to reunite with my MTV kin and host the EMAs for the third time!

‘The EMAs stage has become like another home for me, and this year’s show in Manchester is going to be absolutely incredible!

We have a fantastic array of musical acts and some exciting surprises planned! We can hardly wait!” (Scottish slang added for enthusiasm: ‘all ‘mad fer it’ means they are really excited about it)

One major international music festival showcases the globe’s most legendary musicians, providing fans with an exclusive, cross-platform adventure spanning MTV’s worldwide network in almost 150 nations.

The 2024 MTV EMAs will broadcast at 9pm GMT Sunday, November 10 on MTV UK, Channel 5 and Pluto TV.

On November 12th, the awards, supported by Cetaphil for Sensitive Skin and Paramount+, will become accessible on-demand via Paramount+.
