Miley Cyrus smokes a joint on stage at EMAs

Miley Cyrus courted more controversy at the MTV European Music Awards by smoking cannabis on stage, while Eminem and One Direction were the big winners

Miley Cyrus lit up what looked like a cannabis joint as she accepted the award for Best Video at the MTV European Music Awards in Amsterdam last night.

She also performed her single We Can't Stop, reprising her twerking performance from the VMAs earlier this year.

Cyrus, 20, has been open about her drug use in the past, telling Rolling Stone magazine that she believes "weed is the best drug on earth".

She accepted the Best Video award for her single Wrecking Ball, in which she appears naked.

Eminem was the biggest individual winner of the night, collecting awards for Global Icon and Best Hip Hop act, on the same day as The Marshall Mathers LP 2 became his seventh consecutive UK number one album.
