Watch Griff's Mesmerizing Performance of "One Night" at the MTV EMAs

Updated on Nov 15, 2021 at 8:46 PM

Breakout star Griff performed at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2021, held live in Budapest, Hungary, after the ceremony went virtual last year due to the coronavirus pandemic. Nominated for both best new and best push following her Brit Award win earlier this year, the singer-songwriter performed "One Night" live at the Papp László Budapest Sportaréna.

Griff performed along with what appears to be a shadow-like version of herself (signature bubble ponytail and all) dressed in all black and covered in mirrored mosaics that seemed to copy her every move. It's not the first time Griff has performed with a shadow, though: she recently performed the track at BBC Radio 1's Out Out Live back in October and, we must admit, the shadow stole the show. The performance showed off Griff's flowing dress, her creativity, and her impressive vocal range, and we're looking forward to seeing what the young artist does (and wears) next.
