Teen queen: Singer/actress Selena Gomez looks pretty in a cream Marchesa lace creation as she arrives at the MTV Europe Music Awards at Belfast's Odyssey Arena


She's the host of this year's MTV Europe Music Awards, so it's only right that Selena Gomez was the queen of the red carpet.

The singer/actress, 19, showed off her slim figure in a backless cream Marchesa creation as she arrived at the Odyssey Arena in Belfast tonight.

Although her boyfriend Justin Bieber is also due at the awards, the couple declined to pose together as they arrived on the pink carpet.

No problems: Justin Bieber looked relaxed as he posed on the red carpet with actress Hayden Panettiere


The bash marks their first public event together since fan Mariah Yeater alleged Bieber 'fathered' her three-month-old baby, which he has strenuously denied.

Bieber, 17, arrived solo a short time later and appeared in good spirits as he posed on the carpet with former Heroes actress Hayden Panettiere.

While Gomez was going for a flirty lace mini dress, Katy Perry was a little more daring in a bubblegum pink number.

Fashion forward: Katy posed with designer Jeremy Scott, whose hair was in a very similar quiff


The 27-year-old teamed her unseasonably summery dress with a diamante studded baby pink jacket and heeled trainers.

The star posed alongside designer Jeremy Scott, who rocked an equally outlandish ensemble and a similar rolled quiff hairstyle.

English pop star Jessie J on the other hand went for an unusually feminine strapless number.

Although she normally wears bodysuits and shorts, the 23-year-old went for a softer look with a curly bobbed 'do and yellow leopard-print Dolce & Gabbana dress.

She kept her makeup bold as ever however, with smokey eyes and scarlet lipstick.

The Do It Like A Dude star is up for two MTV EMAs, including Best New Artist, Best Push and Best UK & Ireland Artist..

While the pink carpet was dominated by stars from the music world, some from the world of fashion also made an appearance

Israeli model Bar Refaeli wore a figure-hugging mullet dress with corset top, while Russian pin-up Irina Shayk wore a wet-look gown with a racy split to the thigh.

Representing the soap world was Hollyoaks actress Jennifer Metcalfe, who left little to the imagination in a super-tight, shiny pair of blue leggings and sheer black blouse with plunging neckline.
