I knew this was coming.....

Robbie Williams will close the show as he will be receiving the Outstanding Contribution To Music award, for his work with Take That and as a solo star.

Robbie has already won more BRITs than any other artist and will be presented his 16th honour at the event which takes place at London's Earls Court Exhibition Centre on February 16th 2010.

The UK loves Jay-Z and Jay-Z loves the UK....this was bound to happen!

BRITs - Just A Little Run Down

Yes it's that time of year again.....

Hosted by the pint-sized Kylie Minogue, Mathew Horne and James Gordon (the Gavin & Stacy guys),the show was 'boring-hell' (as expected) except for two performances: the unsual but great Brit mish-mash performance by Estelle and The Tings Tings who performed Shut Up and Let Me Go, American Boy and That's Not My Name, and the hot Girls Aloud who performed the smash hit, The Promise. The Girls also won a BRIT for 'Best Single' for the track.

Female of the night, Duffy, took home three BRIT awards: 'Best UK Female', (I would've prefered if it went to Estelle, Adele or M.I.A), 'Best Breakthrough Act' and 'Best Album' for Rockferry (Polydor). She gave a performance of Warick Avenue which obviously sounded smurf-like...

Your boy Mr West won 'Best International Male' and gave the best speech of the night:
"Barrack is the 'Best Interracial Male' but I'm proud to be the Best International Male in the world. That means every nation right? So if you go to a club and you’re a girl and you see me…you gotta have the best?!" Classic!


You think the Pet Shop Boys could cram enough songs in that medley of theirs?!! There was no point of Lady Gaga performing with them...she was only on stage for like 60 seconds out of their nearly ten minute performance.

Now for the fashion side of the awards....

Girls Aloud...WOW WOW!! Loved their gold glitter sequined outfits....hotness! Ohhh and their dresses were just gorgeous...the pink was doing it for them!



I liked Katy Perry's Hello Kitty outfit!



Our favourite girl Estelle, a.k.a Stellar Stelly, was giving us some Grace Jones flavour with her make up, loved the outfit and the shoes were fierce!!



Was it just me or was Chris Martin flat on his infamous high notes? Not even to mention the band were wearing the same outfits as they did at the Grammys....eurgh! SNM
