And James Corden has done a SHIT job tonight - cutting Adele off in the middle of the best album speech? Utterly and completely disrespectful. Yes, Blur deserve their moment at the end, that's how they do it at the Brits but FFS.... it's once a year, put the news back 2 mins. How dare he cut Adele short? Pig.

James Corden is actually gutted and very upset on ITV2 said he's had the best night of his life and then he had to cut Adele off. He's genuienly really upset and the presenters are trying to console him. I guess the tight schedule he just did as he was told.

Yeah... I'm sure he is gutted, just think the whole thing was a bit rushed and didn't really do the job did it! Maybe they need to rethink timings etc and not try and 'pack' as much in - should be quality not quantity!

she was remembered only in a tribute video, only 30 seconds.Terrible, her parents were there. these industry people will sadly never appreciate her as much as they should… I'm disappointed :(

Why do you care about Adele being cut off? She makes like 15 award acceptance speeches a month, missing one wont hurt her. Sorry, feel like there's other things to be pissed off about.

He still stands in spite of what his Mars bar says.

Can you blame him for expecting more? It's his little girl. I'd be rather upset, too. I'm sure he was expecting more, since it WAS the Brits, after all..

Well maybe it was better to have a short thing like that with Amy talking rather than some big performance of her songs by people flexing their own ego's! At least it was Amy in her own words!!!

Yeah, I live in America too. I watched it online instead of watching it on TV. You can watch just the Amy tribute online if that's what you're wanting. It wasn't much of a tribute at all, really.

There was a tribute - a clip of it is on this thread somewhere!

Yes, Liam, I totally understand why Mitch would be upset. If it upsets us, imagine how he feels. His daughter is worth more.

wish amy was getting the award for outstanding contribution.


Just what I was thinking Liv, "Outstanding Contribution" awarded to artists for their contribution and who have reached legendary status, "and the award goes to Blur???" sorry but Amy paved the way for so many female artists including Adele.
From Wiki:
In February 2010 rapper Jay-Z credited Winehouse with revitalising British music, saying, "There's a strong push coming out of London right now, which is great. It's been coming ever since I guess Amy (Winehouse). I mean always, but I think Amy, this resurgence was ushered in by Amy."[93] In March 2011 the New York Daily News ran an article attributing the continuing wave of British female artists that have been successful in the United States to Winehouse and her absence. Spin magazine music editor Charles Aaron was quoted as saying "Amy Winehouse was the Nirvana moment for all these women,"
If that doesn't deserve the "Outstanding Contibution Award"??? This was their chance to give her a fitting tribute,never had much faith in these award shows anyway. Shame on you "Brits 2012"
