Posted December 10, 200915 yr Ellie Goulding will pick up the Critics’ Choice Award at the 2010 Brit Awards, following in the footsteps of Adele and Florence + The Machine. Delphic and Marina And The Diamonds were shortlisted for the award. All three are also on the longlist for the BBC’s Sound of 2010 poll and part of MTV’s 10 for 2010 initiative. The Critics’ Choice Award is for new British acts that tastemakers are tipping to break through in 2010. The shortlist and winner has been chosen by a team comprising music editors of national newspapers, key music and lifestyle magazines and music websites plus the heads of music at major radio and music TV stations. Brits committee chairman Ged Doherty says, “We are delighted that with the introduction of this award, we have been able to give a platform to brand new British artists in the past two years to reach a wider audience. We have no doubt that Ellie Goulding will follow in the successful footsteps of Adele and Florence and the Machine, we wish her all the best.”
December 10, 200915 yr She was my favourite so I'm glad she won it really. Hope she can get some decent success next year then! :D
December 10, 200915 yr they were right on the money last year weren't they with Florence over Boots :o I guess the same couldn't be said about Adele over Duffy :lol:
December 10, 200915 yr The fact she has won will give her a great chance of album success at the least though.
