Girls Dreams

<p>The Weeknd, perennial fave of those girls at the club who spill their drinks on you while Snapchatting themselves lip-syncing to "Hotline Bling", stopped by MTV's European Music Awards yesterday to give a pretty literal performance of the Daft Punk-featuring lead track from his new album.<br><br>Whilst it's <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IllxqeXh8Go" target="_blank">not the first time</a> "Starboy" has set out on a live outing, it was probably Abel Tesfaye's most visually memorable performance to date. This is mostly because it featured something I have decided to refer to as a 'cool space dome,' which cocooned him, showing projected visuals of constellations and shit (because the song is called "Starboy," you see) before lifting up to reveal him to his public.  </p><p>It probably looked way better on TV than it did at the actual ceremony, but it was a typically slick and stylish performance from Tesfaye, who also picked up the Video Of The Year award for "Starboy"'s mildly traumatising, Nicolas Winding Refn-esque music video. Watch the performance and the music video below:<br><br></p><div style="left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 479px;" class="article__embed article__embed--iframe"><iframe src="//cdn.iframe.ly/CBGYNN?app=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;"></iframe></div><div data-keep=""><div style="left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.2493%;" class="article__embed article__embed--youtube"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/34Na4j8AVgA?wmode=transparent&rel=0&autohide=1&showinfo=0&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;"></iframe></div></div><p>Follow Lauren on <a href="https://twitter.com/hiyalauren" target="_blank">Twitter</a>​. <br><br>(Lead image via MTV on <a href="https://twitter.com/MTV/status/795400386265780224" target="_blank">Twitter</a>​.)</p>
