Russell Brand's Amy Winehouse Joke Tops Brits List

3 comments


Russell Brand's gag about the state of Amy Winehouse's liver has been ranked the greatest on-stage quip at the Brit Awards.

Russell, who hosted the show in 2007, famously joked about the boozy singer: "Amy Winehouse - her surname's beginning to sound like a description of her liver."

MySpace users were asked to choose from a shortlist of the most amusing and cringeworthy comments since the event began in 1977.

Russell's gag came ahead of Robbie Williams challenging Liam Gallagher to a punch-up. As he stepped on stage to collect an award in 2000, he said: "Liam, a hundred grand of your money and a hundred grand of my money? We'll get in a ring and we'll have a fight and you can all watch it on TV."

The Gallaghers were involved in a number of the most memorable lines, with Liam ranked third for his 1996 remark at host Chris Evans: "It will take more than Ginger Bollocks to throw us off."

Will Francis, editor of MySpace UK, said: "The Brits are a national institution and millions of us tune in every year, not just to see who wins and who loses but to see who trips up on stage and who gives the wittiest speeches - the best of which linger in the memory long after the ceremony is over."

Justin Timberlake was fourth in the poll with his 2004 quip: "This is only my first record so you guys stick with me, we've got depression and drug addiction to go through."

In fifth was Bjork's bizarre 1998 comment "I am a grateful grapefruit".

I'm A Brit Busy That Night

No comments










There could be an awkward moment next Tuesday night when the winner of the best Brits Album Of 30 Years is announced.

Acts including Coldplay, Dire Straits and Travis are nominated - but organisers are having a nightmare persuading any of them to turn up.

Oasis, Keane, Duffy, Sade and Dido are also in the running but none of them have agreed to attend yet either.

Phil Collins and The Verve's frontman Richard Ashcroft will be there - but unless they win it could be a little embarrassing.

Radio 2 listeners have already decided the outcome in a public vote and the winner will be announced on the night.

A Brits source said: "Invitations have gone out to all concerned but it is now a tricky situation.

"Dire Straits, The Verve and Oasis have all split. Sade won't go as she likes to protect her privacy.

Poor

"Chris Martin and Co have turned us down as they're recording and preparing for shows.

"Duffy is in the studio in the US. Organisers are exploring all avenues to resolve this."

Oasis' 1995 smash (What's The Story) Morning Glory? is the bookies' favourite.

I think the plan to celebrate the Brits' 30th anniversary with some special awards was a blunder.
Ditching Best Live Act for the best Brits performance of the past three decades was a poor choice.

And the shortlist for this best album of the last 30 years is very odd.

Nevertheless I'm looking forward to the bash.

For the first time in years the race for the main prizes is wide open. Bring it on.

Liam Gallagher - The Best Frontman Of All Time?

There are thousands of imitators out there... if not more. The swagger, the snarling voice, the stance, the stare. We think you'll agree, there is only one Liam Gallagher. (The world simply isn't big enough for two!)

Q Magazine are currently running a poll to find the 'Ultimate Frontman'. If you feel like giving Liam your vote, why not head on over to the magazine's website.

Erik Hassle Covers Oasis' Live Forever

No comments



















If it weren't for Oasis, Swedish singer Erik Hassle's career could have been all about scoring goals instead of hits.

The big-quiffed songwriting talent popped in to the Sun HQ to perform a trio of tunes - including a tender cover of Oasis anthem Live Forever.

Watch his rendition of the defunct Manc band's 1994 hit here.

However, Erik revealed his main ambition as a youngster was to be a footie star - until Noel and Liam Gallagher intervened.

He said: "I used to love playing football, but I stopped at 16.

"Before music, for my whole life I wanted to play professionally. There was a bit of interest.

"When I was a kid, for a long time I was a midfielder. I played in the high league for boys. I could have gone on with that.

"But I've always loved music. Especially Oasis."

Noel Gallagher Won't Attend Court Date For Attacker

No comments










Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher's on-again, off-again plan to address a Toronto court at the sentencing of a fan who attacked him onstage in 2008 is now off again.

At the urging of Mr. Gallagher, 42, the Crown sought and received an adjournment of last week's scheduled sentencing of Danny Sullivan, 48, of Pickering so that the British rock star could deliver his victim impact statement in person. Mr. Sullivan had already pleaded guilty to assault causing bodily harm for drunkenly mounting the stage at a Toronto Island concert and shoving Mr. Gallagher into a speaker cabinet, breaking three of his ribs.

Mr. Justice Richard Schneider reluctantly agreed to the delay, but at a hearing to set the new sentencing date of March 23 yesterday, prosecutor Ruth Kleinhenz told court Mr. Gallagher no longer plans to attend.

“I'm mystified,” John Collins, lawyer for Mr. Sullivan, said later. “I suppose there's reason to be concerned we might encounter another delay; hopefully that's not the case.”

Gallagher Brothers Set To Snub The Brits

2 comments















If Brits bosses thought they could end the almighty Wonderbrawl between the Gallaghers, they need to think again.

Feuding Oasis brothers Liam, 37, and Noel, 42, have both been invited to next week's 30th anniversary awards show - and no expense has been spared for their "arrival".

A £14,000 table has been reserved for the lads - whose (What's The Story) Morning Glory? is up for Best British Album of the last 30 years.

However, we're told the chances of them both turning up are about as likely as Gary Glitter picking up a lifetime achievement award.

The brothers are still refusing to speak to each other - and if anyone does get them talking again, well, they'll deserve an award.

Liam, for one, is mulling over the thought of turning up on the night. He said: "I want to go. I want a night out and it would close the Oasis thing for me if we won it." But if he goes, Noel's a no-show, apparently.

His older brother has told pals that if Liam went he would snub the awards completely - and he has a plan B up his sleeve thanks to his mates from Kasabian.

A pal said: "Liam and Noel have still not spoken since they split.

"Things are so bad that Noel is moving into a new house at the moment and is so off radar, Liam doesn't even know the address. Every day the Brits are on the phone checking to see if they are coming, but there is still no answer from either of them. It's as if one is waiting for the other to crack and apologise.

"Liam's thinking he'll leave it until the last minute and will decide if he's going on Tuesday, which is the day itself." However, his relaxed rock star attitude is giving Brits organisers some serious problems.

"This is a live TV show," we're told. "There is no way bosses can keep an entire table empty, waiting on the off chance that they will rock up. Apart from the fact they will lose out on £14,000 worth of unused tickets if they don't turn up, a big empty table will look terrible on the TV." It certainly will - and canny Noel has the perfect get-out clause. Our source adds: "The Kasabian lads have asked Noel if he would perform at a War Child gig on the same night.

"He is seriously considering giving Liam and the awards the finger and turning up to play as a special guest." Brit mean, Noel!

Oasis Tipped To Take Brits Album Title

No comments
















Bookies have stopped taking bets on who'll take the Brit for Best Album Of 30 Years after a run of big money on Oasis.

They look dead certs to win it for (What's The Story) Morning Glory? - their second album released in 1995. The band, who split last year, are up against Coldplay, Dido, Dire Straits, Duffy, Keane, Phil Collins, Sade, The Verve and Travis.

However, the prospect of Oasis landing the gong has put organisers under pressure in case warring brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher both want to attend.

They will have to be seated well apart and you know there's a chance of trouble.

The lads have not spoken since the huge bust-up backstage in Paris in August when Noel quit the band for good. Liam has already shaken things up nicely - slating Florence And The Machine.

He said: "I'm not having anyone with ginger hair making music. I can't go down that road.

"I'm sure she's a nice girl but she sounds like someone has stood on her f***ing foot."
