I think The Brits have been crap since about 1998 (Giving the oustanding achievment award to The Spice Girls, I mean FFS!). Maybe even before that. The whole ceremony is so pretentious and up its own arse that most of the time I sit at home watching it and cringing. Its not as prestigious as it thinks it is.
These days it seems to be more focussed on nominating and handing out awards to former pupils of The Brits School (Amy Winehouse, Kate Nash, Leona Lewis, Katie Melua, Mika etc) Im sure its no coincidence that the new 'critics choice' award for the new artist most likely to succeed has been awarded to Adele, a former pupil at The Brits School
. I know the awards funds the school but that takes the piss quite frankly, its like some old boys club.
Why was Amy McDonald not nominated for Best Female, but 'Bat For Lashes' whoever in god's name she is
was? Why give Adele all that hype, when Duffy is a better singer than she is? Not to mention the fact that its an award ceremony that celebrates British music, and they go and fill the stage with American peformers.
I also cannot believe its taken them till now to give Macca the Outsanding Achievment Award, and then they go and insult him by getting that botoxed mutton piece Kylie to hand it over to him.
What a ****ing joke its turned into!
