HOT OFF THE PRESS: Watch BRIT Awards Winners

MARK OWEN SMILES

Whilst the DiS brethren were mincing round a dank Dalston for Cadence Weapon, pop’s elite gathered like hens round a cornfeed, pecking viciously for seed at last nights BRIT AWARDS 2008. So, who went home with a contented belly?

Foo Fighters (who HILARIOUSLY quipped that they thought they were up for Newcomer) and Arctic Monkeys (who sniped at the Brit School darlings) managed to get a gut-full of crop with two awards each, whilst Girls Aloud and Leona Lewis went home hungry, the latter in spite of her four nominations.

Hosted by the Osbournes at Earl's Court, ohhh... let’s just get on with this, eh?

No. One more point. Anyone think that ‘Shine’ by Take That sounds just like a Mark Owen bastardisation of ‘Jenny & The Ess-Dog’ by Stephen Malkmus? Carrion..
