Jared Leto Hails Kanye West's 30 Seconds To Mars Cameo At MTV EMAs 2010

November 8, 2010
Jared Leto Hails Kanye West's 30 Seconds To Mars Cameo At MTV EMAs 201030 Seconds To Mars frontman Jared Leto has thanked Kanye West after he joined the band on stage at the MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs) in Madrid.

The rapper appeared as a surprise guest during the band’s outdoor performance at Puerta de Alcala last night (November 7).

West rapped his verse on the band’s song ‘Hurricane’ before playing a short version of his own single, ‘Power’.

“This wasn't even last-minute, more like last-second," Leto told MTV News. "Literally a day and a half ago, he was in New York and he got on, literally, the last flight, he made it out here.

“It's really a testament to him. ... I mean, Kanye West flew halfway across the world to be on the stage with 30 Seconds to Mars for a short period of time."

Leto said both musicians “knew it was going to be imperfect and a bit of a beautiful disaster”.

He added: “It was more about the doing and sharing it together and really celebrating each other and the work we do."
