2015 Brit Awards!

Every year I look forward to the Brit Awards because they are one of my favourite nights of the year and 2015's were no different. The evening was live from the o2 Arena in London and we saw a whole array of superb celebrities inside the building on our television screens. The wonderful Ant & Dec hosted the night for the first time in a staggering 14 years and they were absolutely amazing! Read on for my summary and review of the crazy ceremony...

The performances this year were amazing and quite unforgettable. Taylor Swift flawlessly opened the show singing the brilliant Blank Space. Kanye made quite the impression and Ed Sheeran gave a beautiful performance of Bloodstream. Of course, the person everyone is talking about... Madonna. The Queen of pop herself returned to the Brits stage for the first time in 20 years and made quite the return. Despite the tragic tumble she persevered and very professionally carried on with the fantastic performance. She truly is a remarkable woman! Other impeccable and absolutely wonderful acts were the stunning Sam Smith, Paloma Faith, Royal Blood, George Ezra and Take That. 

All the winners were incredibly deserving and Sam Smith went away with the most adding more to his award collection! Below is the full list of winners:

I think it is safe to say that British music is absolutely amazing right now and there are some very talented artists who we can look forward to hearing more from in 2015!

MTV VMAs 2014

Another year, another amazing video music awards! Last nights brilliant show was bursting with talent and was just fantastic. The show opened with a brilliant medley from Ariana Grande, Nicki Minaj and the beautiful Brit Jessie J. Despite Nicki's slightly
embarrassing wardrobe malfunction, she was very professional and still the 3 fierce women delivered a great performance of their already very successful single. Taylor Swift looked beautiful and gave us a very fun and enjoyable performance off the upbeat tune of 'Shake It Off' shaking off (if you pardon the pun) lots of criticism of the new song. The audience was also treated with a delightful performance of the incredible 'Amnesia' from the sensational 5 Seconds of Summer and Queen Bee (Beyonce) did the most exciting medley of the year. Other excellent performances throughout the night included: Sam Smith, Maroon 5, Usher, Iggy Azalea and Rita Ora.

Every single award winner was very deserving. Best Lyric Video went to 5 Seconds of Summer which is no surprise and a huge achievement for the Aussie lads who are currently touring with the boys of One Direction. Ed Sheeran also went to win Best Male Video for 'Sing' which is amazing. However the most emotional part of the night was when Miley Cyrus won Video of the Year for 'Wrecking Ball' and sent her friend Jesse on to the stage to accept the award who then went on to represent homelessness. Everyone went silent and Miley looked on proudly as she wept from the side of the stage. He talked about My Friends Place which is in Hollywood and is a homeless centre for young people. Miley is a huge supporter of this cause and donations can be made here. We love Miley!

Below is a full list of the award winners:
