The three piece- who are nominated for Best Rock- played Know Your Enemy and Minority to start EMA proceedings in the German capital.

Backed by huge flames singer Billie Joe left the stage during the first track to run right through the crowd.

Hostess Katy Perry then took to the Katy Kat Club in front of 9,000 audience members wearing a stunning outfit.

She performed a medley of the Best Song nominees - including her own unique cabaret-style versions of Beyonce’s Halo and Kings Of Leon’s Use Somebody.

Lady GaGa and Kings Of Leon are up for the most awards tonight.

Performers still left to play include U2, Jay-Z, Beyonce, Shakira and Leona Lewis.
