Update: The BRIT Awards 2009

Kings of Leon pipped Fleet Foxes, MGMT, AC/DC and The Killers to the post, winning best International Group with grace and style, "Thank you to the BRIT Academy...thank you to the UK, without Y'all we would be nothing." Kings of Leon also win the award for the Best International Album and again pay homage to their adopted homeland: "You created Kings of Leon, good luck getting rid of us!". The Band also perform popular single 'Use Somebody' to an excited studio audience.

Paul Weller wins Best British Male. Duffy gives a triumphant performance of 'Warwick Avenue'. Take That give an undeniably cheesy rendition of 'The Greatest Day' from an illuminated platform suspended above the crowd.


Best live act goes to veterans Iron Maiden.
With their latest outstanding offering it's no surprise that Elbow pick up the award for Best British Group. Florence and the Machine wins the coveted Critics Choice Award.
