All Things Brit Part 5

Best International Group was awarded to Foo Fighters who were unable to attend but sent a video of drummer Taylor Hawkins saying thanks.

Ed Sheeran won British Breakthrough Act, much to the delight of the crowd (and me!).
He beat some huge British names and thanked the fans as well as his manager, informing him that he 'needs a new sofa'. An inside joke to how Ed has a habit of sleeping on other people's sofas rather than booking into hotels maybe?

Next, Bruno Mars sang a jazz version of his hit, Just the Way You Are. It was different and interesting to hear and won over the crowd.



James then spoke to One Direction, joking about how they were allowed 'squash and a kids meal, nothing else', whilst commenting on the number of empty wine bottles on their table. He also referred to Harry Styles' past relationship with 32 year old Caroline Flack by commenting, "he loves a Loose Woman" and asking if he would be going home with Denise Welch. Much to the delight of One Direction haters everywhere.

Part 4 began with a tribute to Amy Winehouse who died last year.

Plan B came on stage to announce the winner of British Male Solo Artist.
The winner being Ed Sheeran.
He said that he was bad at giving speeches and struggled to rememeber everyone to thank before walking off stage. This just highlighted that fame is still yet to go to his head as he's still such an average guy. I think he's so loveable!

Huwie Morgan and Jo Whiley were onstage to announce Coldplay Best British Group. This is the 3rd time that they had won this award.

James spoke to Kylie Minogue about 2012 being the 25th anniversary of her debut single; a huge landmark of her career.

Next up was Adele, singing Rolling In The Deep. She camera cut to Alan Carr who seemed to be having a ball supporting his new BFF.

Oh dear, James Corden messed up his lines for Kylie's introduction. I think he must have been overwhelmed by how amazing she looks. Kylie awarded Adele Best Female Solo Artist. She is the first artist to sell over 3million copies of an album in a year in the UK.
She said to Kylie: "I feel like a drag queen next to you, I've got high heels on!"

"That's one hell of a successful tranny" commented James.

Jessie J and James Whitehall proved to be the best looking couple giving an award whilst announcing the International Male Solo Artist, which went to Bruno Mars.
Bruno promised his fans that his 2nd album was on its way before skipping off stage.

Olly Murs began his performance by hopping out of the top of a giant union jack painted heart. Before the awards he had been quoted as saying 'This will be the biggest performance I've ever done'.
A number of dancers were on stage with Olly, including plenty that stood in a heart formation at the front of the stage, hiding the Rizzle Kicks, ready for them to appear in time for their verse in Olly's song My Heart Skips a Beat.

James Corden then spoke to Jessie about her upcoming coaching role on BBC1's The Voice alongside Tom Jones, Will.I.Am and Danny from The Script.

Ed Sheeran finished Part Two with his stripped back rendition of Lego House using just his acoustic guitar for accompaniment. He had also changed out of his suit into a simple green t-shirt and jeans. Casual but amazing, Ed in every way.

All Things Brit


Ed Sheeran is remaining humble about his four Brit award nominations. In a quick interview with CapitalFM he said, "I don't want to place too much importance on it, in case I walk away like 'oh, that wasn't really...'"

He also went on to say that he shared Jessie J's stance that just being nominated; "We've already won, I know that's cheesy to say."

Ed is performing fourth on stage and will be surrounded by friends and family whilst finding out whether or not he wins.

"I think at best I'll come away with two." He thinks that One Direction will win British Single, "It's all on votes and their fanbase is massive." He also thinks that Adele is bound to win British Album.



All Things Brit

I'm a little bit excited for the Brits today. Just over an hour to go!
Ed Sheeran has been nominated for the most awards today, and upon arrival at the red carpet, was given this from Lego, in tribute to his song Lego House.



How amazing!

Also Jessie J arrived about an hour ago looking gorgeous as always...

Personally, I love her hair today but that dress is definitely a stunner.
She's not the only celeb thats glammed up for the event, Ed Sheeran is certainly looking dapper in his suit...

Big performances tonight are coming from Ed Sheeran, Rizzle Kicks and Olly Murs. Also Adele is definitely going to have some big wins tonight. Her table is closest to the stage; if that doesn't give the game away I don't know what does...
