Did anyone else find the "tribute" to Whitney Houston at The Brits last night really odd? It seemed rushed & pointless & clinical. I wasn't expecting them to gush over her like they did at the Grammys but a tad more respect would have been nice. She did make the music industry a shedload of money after all...
Whitney Houston "tribute" at The Brits.
It was quite rushed. I suppose they thought they ought to as everybody else is doing this at the moment. I thought the tribute to Amy Winehouse was more fitting.
The tribute to Amy wasn't much better. They should have ended the show by showing one of Amy's best live performances. Really disappointing from them.
The tribute to Amy was worse than having none at all in my opinion. Bloody shambles by a bunch of dick heads.

What was the Amy Winehouse tribute like?
Amys seemed more poignant as it was like she was agreeing with what had killed her-her demons etc. but both tributes were worthless. the show was a load of rubbish

It was very "blink and then you missed it"
I think the ceremony could of done with an extra half hour. It felt too rushed this year.

Watching now... it didn't seem to be much. They should have showed one of her music videos or someone should have covered one of her songs (like in the Whitney Houston tribute at the Grammys).

I liked it. As someone else has said on here already it was filled with soundbites about her downfall. I thought it was bittersweet.

Probably should have been a bit longer though.

To put it bluntly, I thought both tributes were highly inappropriate given that their respective families were probably watching.
The whole show was rushed...and quite honestly, a bore fest in my opinion.

That seemed slightly more personal because it had her talking through it but come on, they could have done much, MUCH better. Two supreme talents and you could't give them more than a minute of airtime each?

How many minutes would've been acceptable in your eyes then?
