Justin Bieber Leads MTV EMA 2010 Digital Charge

London (ots/PRNewswire)

MTV EMA 2010 is looking to
make the biggest digital impact of the year with a number of
cutting-edge online, mobile, social media and interactive elements
that allow music fans to connect with each other and with the show
across multiple platforms.
MTV EMA 2010 is sponsored by the new Suzuki Swift, Calvin Klein
Jeans and Dell.
Among the digital highlights of this year's show is the
announcement that social networking poster-boy and music phenomenon
Justin Bieber is the official MTV EMA 2010 digital host. With 5.6
million followers on Twitter, Bieber is currently one of the most
followed and influential celebrities taking advantage of the
breakthrough social networking site.
Harnessing that power, Justin Bieber will be tweeting and
interacting live with fans watching the MTV EMA 2010 online through a
number of new, exclusive features added to the web simulcast of the
show. For the very first time, MTV and AttracTV have partnered to
develop interactive overlays which can be switched on over the EMA
live-stream exclusively at: http://www.mtvema.com. Now EMA fans can
hear Justin's live take on the show, take polls, read the official
live-blog and log-in to their own Twitter and Facebook accounts to
join the conversation while watching the show. The web viewing
experience will also deliver exclusive backstage interviews as well
as a host of 'on the night' surprises. Plus the new and improved
Twitter Tracker will give fans a real-time view of the most talked
about celebrities and hot topics as well as allowing them to tweet
right from the app.
"I'm so excited to have all my fans come watch the show with me
online," said Justin Bieber, "it will be like one giant, global
viewing party at my house!"
http://www.mtvema.com is the destination for fans to delve into the
2010 digital offerings and, most importantly, to cast their votes and
make sure their favourite artists take home the trophies. This year,
http://www.mtvema.com is available across 26 regions and in 16

"MTV fans across the world are simultaneously using multiple
screens and devices to enhance their own media experience. Our
digital strategy for MTV EMA 2010 is a reflection of that," explained
Gary Ellis, Vice President, Digital Media, MTV Networks
International. "We want to ensure that however you choose to interact
with the show or the artists or the performances, you are getting the
best and most customised experience possible."
As previously announced, MTV EMA 2010 is also offering a bigger,
louder mobile presence than ever before including an MTV EMA
iPhone/iPad app and a Flashlite app for Nokia/Sony-Ericsson handsets.
In addition, the show has entered a partnership with social
networking site Habbo Hotel for the second year in a row. Habbo users
are able to visit EMA-branded public and private rooms where they can
vote and participate in EMA activities including competitions to win
in-game and real prizes.
