UK Timeline Brit Awards 2010

Arthurgray50@blu · 18-01-2010, 17:14

It has been announced that Susan Boyle, has been snubbed for an award at The Brits, even though she hasd the biggest selling album for 2009.

And the reason, the insiders believe, is that the Music Industry is getting back at Simon Cowell.

How stupid and pathetic the industry is, when this happens, probabely some load of crap will win the top award - runner up to the biggest selling album.

Any chance of a link?

Oh, and it's worth remembering that the nominations for the Brits are not all decided on Sales..

Cheers.. I would have thought if they really wanted to p Simon Cowell off, they'd block Cheryl Cole as well. After all, not only is she a judge on the X Factor, but she also found fame as a result of one of his shows.

Now without looking can anyone tell me who won the Brit awards in 2001,2005 and last year..

Title Changed: a) because it was annoying me, and b) to allow for a discussion of all elements of the awards without having to have multiple threads.

It's also worth noting that JLS (who, I believe, were x factor contestants) have received more nominations than almost anyone else.

They were talking about this on the radio and it seems one possible reason is that Susan Boyle has only covered songs from other artists, she hasn't done anything original. All the artists announced have either written their own music or had it written for them.

That's what I presumed as well. Behind all the hype she is simply a good singer and there was no creation of new music.

Last year Subo sold MORE albums than anyone else, so to me its an absolute disgrace that she hasn't been nominated, or could be beciase of age ?

Nominated for what? She does cover versions. It's not as if she made new music and brought out something original. She sung existing songs. The judges thought she didn't do anything to merit an award and your free to disagree but you don't need to hunt around for ulterior motives for the 'snub'.

I've already explained that sales are not really relevant..
