Ariana Grande and Ed Sheeran will perform at the 2014 MTV Europe Music Awards. The "Break Free" pop idol and the "Don't" singer will join Nicki Minaj, who will host the MTV EMAs live from the SSE Hydro arena in Glasgow, Scotland on Sunday, November 9.


In a statement, Ariana Grande said "I'm definitely looking forward to being part of the party onstage this year."


Gordon Matheson, who heads the Glasgow City Council and is the Chairman of Glasgow City Marketing Bureau, said: "Today's exciting announcement that Ariana Grande and Ed Sheeran - two of the biggest names in music - are to perform at the MTV EMA shows that our countdown to hosting one of the world's premier music events is really gathering pace."


Sheeran is the biggest selling artist in the U.K. right now. Sheeran's new album, "X," overtook Coldplay to claim the biggest-selling album of the year.


Sheeran told his followers on Facebook, "I'm Ed Sheeran. I'm going to be performing this year at the EMAs in Glasgow. I've never been successful enough in Europe to be a part of it, and finally I am. I hear there's another female artist performing. She's got a few "Problems" and hangs out with rappers that might be a bit "Fancy."
The MTV EMAs will start in America with a live broadcast from Miami before the show is broadcast live.
