Amid rapturous cheers, he said: "Liverpool, let’s hear it for Barack Obama." Jared Leto, from 30 Seconds to Mars, made the crowd stand in honour of the US President-elect Barack Obama.

At the tender age of 24, Katy Perry is already a veteran of the culture wars despite its utterly insipid lyrics, her chart-topping paean to lipstick lesbianism, I Kissed A Girl, attracted the ire of conservatives and gay groups alike. To Liverpool, then, and the MTV Europe awards, in an attempt to make sense of this historic week in politics.
