*Take a look at everybody who was nominated, here.
Hmmm… sound eerily familiar?
Via ContactMusic: Sheffield youngsters ARCTIC MONKEYS have snubbed the Brits for the second year running, claiming they are too busy to attend the awards show next week. Despite being nominated for Best Album and Best Group, the northern foursome say they are planning to shoot the video for their latest single BRAINSTORM, which is due out on April 16th.
However, drummer MATT HELDERS told BBC6 Music the band were not being malicious or playing up to their aloof image, but rather they just didn’t have the time. He said: “We’re filming the video that day, so we’re not going to be anywhere near it. “We haven’t snubbed it, we’re just busy boys getting ready to go on tour again.”
You know what? The more they ignore it, the more likely they will win. My $5 is on the Monkeys winning both Album and Group awards.

Guess who’s coming back to The Brit Awards….
Via ContactMusic: JARVIS COCKER, once a geeky sex symbol of 90s Britpop and MICHAEL JACKSON antagoniser, is due to return to the BRIT AWARDS after being banned for over ten years. The stringy former PULP lead singer has been nominated for Best Male in the show – meaning Cocker will return to the awards ceremony for the first time since his infamous stage invasion in 1996.
Cocker appeared on stage as music legend Jackson was performing a slightly over-the-top version of EARTH SONG and appeared to mock the US singer. However, not everyone was amused, as the COMMON PEOPLE singer’s protests against Jackson’s “Christ-like” performance was too rock ‘n’ roll for some.
Former BLUR frontman DAMON ALBARN recently branded Cocker’s antics as “disturbing”. He said he didn’t like it when the bespectacled singer “pulled his pants down” in front of Jacko. “That just seemed really wrong. If someone is sick, he’s not open to ridicule,” Albarn spouted.
Damon v. Jarvis, it’s 1993 all over again. I LOVE IT!
