Beyonce was the big winner at the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs), held at the O2 World in Berlin, Germany yesterday (November 5).

The global music icon walked away with three of the night's biggest awards - Best Female, Best Song, (Halo) and Best Video, (Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)). She had been nominated for four EMAs, including Best Live Act. The win for Best Video repeats her win at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs), held in New York last September 13. Beyonce used the occasion in Berlin to thank her husband, Jay-Z for "putting a ring on it."

The audience at Berlin's O2 World was treated to a mesmerizing performance of Sweet Dreams, by Beyonce and television viewers across Europe tuned in to the live telecast.  MTV US channels, mtvU and MTV2, will air a one-hour version of the Awards on Sunday, November 15; 12:00 AM on MTV2 and 8:00 PM on mtvU.  

Since its release on November 18, 2008, Beyonce latest album, I Am...Sasha Fierce, has topped the album charts around the world and spawned five #1 singles, including EMA winners Halo and Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It).

The I Am... world tour continues its successful run with stops in Egypt (11/6), Greece (11/8) and three shows at London's 02 Arena starting on November 14. Beyonce will mark the one-year anniversary of the release of I Am...Sasha Fierce onstage at MEN Arena in Manchester, England.  

The video premiere of the new single Video Phone, originally scheduled to air on MTV channels across the globe, including the US, following the airing of the EMAs from Berlin, will air at a later date in November.

According to Billboard magazine, the Video Phone debut on the Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop chart makes I Am...Sasha Fierce the first album in a decade to yield six entries which include Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It),  If I Were A Boy, Diva, Halo, Ego and Video Phone.
