By Simone Hilliard

It's official! Madrid has been taken over by celebrities as the 2010 European Music Awards get ready to tape this weekend. Eva Longoria Parker is the host du jour and before she takes stage, the Tejana Mexicana let us know what she's most excited about at this weekend's awards show.

Which performers are you most excited to see?

"I’m really exited to see Katy Perry, Shakira never disappoints, and I love Kings of Leon and Linkin Park. The performers they have got lined up are amazing. I’m thrilled that Bon Jovi are receiving an award, because that’s probably my favorite band of all time. I’ve seen them in concert many times, I’ve met them and even had my picture taken with them. In fact my photo of me with Bon Jovi is such a prized possession that I have it hanging up in my office."

You performed a rap song for the EMA promo video. Do you think you'll get a record deal?

"Probably not! The whole point of the EMAs is that you expect the unexpected. I had so much fun doing the promo rap although I was absolutely terrified doing it. I was only given the script on the day and we had two hours to shoot it, so I didn’t have time either to get nervous or to back out."

What are you wearing to host the show?

"I’ll be wearing several different outfits, of course. In fact I’ll probably make six to eight changes. Music awards are always pushing the limits of fashion so anything goes, especially at the MTV EMAs – and I’m excited to go there. At this event there is a kind of a double licence to wear what you want – normal rules don’t apply. So I’m going to try and see if I can pull off some way-out outfits. I’m still deciding exactly what to wear, but one thing is for sure, I will be wearing one of Victoria Beckham’s dresses. She’s a good friend now."

The EMA air this Sunday (November 7) at 8pm on Tr3s.
