Watch: Rita Ora becomes tearful remembering Liam Payne

Rita Ora has paid an emotional tribute to Liam Payne as she hosted this year's MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs) in Manchester, almost a month after the One Direction star's death.

Ora collaborated with Payne on their 2018 hit single For You, and her voice cracked as she remembered him, calling him "one of the kindest people that I knew".

She delivered the tribute dressed in a dark suit in a poignant moment that was in contrast to the upbeat tone of the rest of the ceremony.
