Correct me if I'm wrong but 'British Live Act' is a category for acts that perform COMPLETELY live. Instruments too.
As much as I <3 Take That, them, and Leona don't play their instrumentals..

It;s wiki bitch.

I still don't think that is justifiable considering they made their "breakthrough" in 2007. They won't win anyway.

And whats "It;s wiki bitch"?.........

[robb]

KKBL...............THE SINGLE OF THE YEAR IS BASED ON RECORD SALES APPARENTLY. I thought Run was about 13th best, including the overseas
acts who can't be in the UK Single CATEGORY. SO, YEAH, IT IS A DISGRACE THAT she isn't in for 'Run'......and why no BEST BRITISH FEMALE nomination?
Answer: THE USUAL BRITS SNOBBERY BRIGADE AT WORK. STUFF 'EM.

[Tom4784]

The Brits isn't snobby, they nominated Scouting for girls for 3 awards...

[MarkWaldorf]

The Brit Awards are snobby....that's why I hate it when they compare it to The Grammys. The Grammys tend to give a lot of artists a chance, whilst the Brit Awards just play around with 10 artists in like 12 catergories.

But...Scouting for girls! They can only play 3 different notes! :joker: As long as artists like S4G and Leona are nominated then I wouldn't consider it snobby Since they aren't exactly acts with a lot of credibility.

[Benjamin]

Woop Go M.I.A, love her.

Scouting for Girls??? They suck. They are the blandest of the bland. They don't deserve anything!

[MarkWaldorf]

All their songs sound the same!

[robb]

Scouting For Credibility are crap. But to say Leona Lewis lacks credibility is absurd. She has a US number 1 SINGLE/ALBUM in the bag, as well as fab success worldwide. But the fact is she appeared on XF. The US doesn't care about that (3 Grammy noms), but the BRITS panel do. It's pathetic.
