Duffy Wins Big At The Rubbishest-Ever Brits
The Brit awards exist to recognise excellence in British music. Or at least it usually does - last night it couldn't be bothered and just gave a load of prizes to Duffy instead. That's right. Duffy. Duffy who your mum likes. Duffy who sings like a baby goat stuck in a cattle grid. Duffy who looks like she'd burst into tears if you showed her a sad kitten. Duffy won three Brit awards last night, roughly six more than she deserves. But still, it's not like Iron Maiden won anything, is it? What? Iron Maiden did win something? God. We're doomed.

It’s The Brit Awards Tonight. Contain Yourself.
Tonight, ITV wipes its entire schedule of supposed entertainment to bring us the Brit Awards 2009. It may not have happened yet, but we can’t see it being edgy, cool or vaguely risky. The show goes out at 8pm, leaving today's young pop stars with an entire hour to swear before the watershed kicks in. Just over a week ago, we watched the Grammys which quite frankly overshadowed the entire Brits ceremony. Not only did the Grammys have a million categories where nearly everyone can win, but we don’t expect there to be any pre-show scraps like the alleged one between Rihanna and Chris Brown. Unless someone attacks Chris Martin with a pack of streaky bacon.

Leona Lewis Wins Just About Zero Brit Awards
The Osbournes hosted the Brit awards last night, so the show promised to be jam-packed with enough controversy to turn your granny blue.
Is that what happened, though? No - thanks to the Brits' stringent 'don't let Ozzy Osbourne say more than three words in a row' policy, the only vaguely controversial thing the Osbournes brought to the Brit awards was the way that Sharon Osbourne's face looked as if it had been attacked by jellyfish in her sleep.
Oh, and Leona Lewis didn't win any of the four Brit awards she was nominated for. That's sort of controversial, isn't it? Anyone?
