      But… but… MIKA? He's awful. Why Radio One? WHY??? Totally agree with all the rest though.

      Also, what's with all these random commetns? What the hell has JLo and Britney got to do with the Brit Awards? Stop spamming people, it just makes you look a fool.

      aw man, why didn't amy or leona win anything. that is so wrong.

      116

      Leona Lewis is soo amazing.
      the Brit Awards have definatly made a mistake in choosing these nominees.
      Although it's not much better,
      Im glad Im not apart of Britain at this moment..

    17. Mat'sMoe says – reply to this


      117

      Yeah FOO FIGHTERS!!!!
      Amy brought tears to my eyes, she's getting it together more and more each time she performs.

      Glad Ronnie was right beside her and that the music was very upbeat. Even her second performance was uplifting.

    18. Nic says – reply to this


      118

      Amy Winehouse was not nominated for any awards as she hasnt released anything in the UK since the last brit awards, where she won best female and her album back to black was nominated for british album however lost out to arctic monkeys.

      NOTHING FOR AMY !!! Nul n’est prophète en son pays…

    23. KarenBr. says – reply to this


      123

      I was just gonna say that Nic. She just wasn't eligable for any awards since her Back to Black album was nominated last year, alongside herself as best british female. Which she won if I remember correctly. The British public does love her, I mean, she did have the best selling album of 2007 in the UK. That must count for something.
      p.s. I'm soooo happy about Mark Ronson winning. Do think it's strange that he won for best male artist though, should have won for best album. But I'm still glad the Arctic Monkeys took it, love'em;**

      Re: CashewsRgud
      Hey, don't get me wrong. I love Take That as much as the next Mancunian homosexual.
      Their live performance was very very good. They're even better than I remember them from my youth.
      But Muse, live, at the sold out brand new Wembley Stadium? That gig was life changing, and I'm not even exaggerating.

    28. KarenBr. says – reply to this


      128

      You're so right about that waki taki. i was hoping she would do me and my country proud:D but wth, i'm still proud of her:D

      141

      Amy Winehouse DID NOT get overlooked at the Brits. She could not be nominated because her album was not released in the year that the Brits were voting for. Her album was considered for last years Brits and she won.

    42. Nayby says – reply to this

      Amy didnt win anything as she was only up for 1 award because she didnt release her album in 2007 but released it in 2006

    49. Anuschka says – reply to this


      149

      What? No Grammy for my Darling Amy??? What shame her own country doesn't support her.

    50. hannah says – reply to this


      150

      Re: Ryan
      Thing is, take that have a MASSIVE fan base and as it was voted for by the public nobody else really had a hope in hell of beating them… even if they are better live (doubtful.. TT are freaking out of this world live). Don't get me wrong, i love Muse as much as the next person, but the effort Take That put into their shows is phenomenal.

      Never underestimate the Take That fan base.

      Amy had her Album out 2006 so was not eligible for anything….

      Hey Everyone, I thought Leona Lewis gave a fantastic performance at the Brit's she has such a powerfull voice and she know's how to use it….

    54. carly says – reply to this


      154

      Winehouse was only up for one award as Back to Black was released in 06 in the UK - and therefore not eligible for nominations this year

    55. Maud says – reply to this


      155

      Only one award for Mika!!!! That's unfair :(
      Mika you really decerve more!!!! Anyway, congratulation for your award! :D

      Re: CGG – I love take that, they are soooo much better without Robbie Williams, he would have just chaved the band right up. To me Take that deserved every award that they won. Don't dis Take That !

      Re: You suck Brits

      You say we have so few unsuccessful music acts, You idiot you obviously dont know your music, rock originated from the UK, We had the Beatles, Rolling Stones and so on. Your just obviously too pigheaded to realise, our artists are great in their own rights, whats more important to them is to win a Brit award because they are then fully recognised by the country that they came from.

      MIKA is so amazing! I'm glad he won; he so deserves it!

      170

      for all u lot whining AMY WINEHOUSE WASN'T NOMINATED FOR BEST ALBUM AS HER ALBUM 'BACK TO BLACK' WAS RELEASED IN THE UK A YEAR BEFORE THE USA, 2006, SO WASN'T ELIGABLE

    71. Mark says – reply to this


      171

      i am so glad to see MIka and Kate Nash winnin' i love both those albums so much

    72. Leanne says – reply to this


      172

      If you wondering why Amy Winehouse didn't win any awards this year, was because Back to Black was released in 2006 and therefore doesn't qualify for the album award, and she released 3 singles in that eyar aswell (i think). You have to have realised the single or album in 2007 to qualify this year.

      btw last year she won best british female

    73. Leanne says – reply to this


      173

      sorry for repeating what was said earlier about Amy not winning an award lol didn't see them :D
