During this year’s MTV Europe Music Awards, MTV kept track of which artists were creating ‘buzz’ on Twitter and with the paparazzi. Not only did Big Bang just win Best Worldwide Act award, but the group proved to be the most tweeted artists throughout the evening, coming in at #1 on the 2011 MTV EMAs Twitter Tracker. They also managed to work their way to #2 in Paparazzi Buzz, a category tracking the number of retweets made for celebrities’ official red carpet photos on Twitter.

MTV asked, “Which EMA stars are you tweeting about? Get the buzz on who’s trending right this second!”, and tonight, that answer was Big Bang. Over the course of the three hours of festivities, Big Bang, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, and Selena Gomez each battled for overall top spot.

Roughly midway through the event, Big Bang fans were able place the beloved quintet at #1 on the tracker. However, shortly before their victory was announced, Big Bang made it to the #1 position overall where they have stayed since then. It looks the years of practice to get birthday and anniversary tags to trend on Twitter have paid off big for VIPs.

Prior to their win, Big Bang was interviewd by Western media on the red carpet. Taeyang stated, “I grew up with MTV, they were always showing us alot of musiv videos and music information.” When asked who he was most interested in seeing, G-Dragon named Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga.
