Maybe I should invest some money in Coldplay next Tuesday when I am in London already ;)

 

The votes will still be counted and I don't need to call from mainland Europe :)

 

I was thinking the same..I'm gonna call as soon as I land in London :D

 

 

*takes note of the number to call*

BUMP!

Can you vote from outside UK? Then I'll vote right now!

You probably could, but I'm not sure how much it would cost :\

Bookies suspend Brits betting amid fears of leak

Bookmakers have suspended betting on the Brits amid fears that the result could have been leaked.

 

They took the unusual action after a flurry of bets in just a few hours were placed on veteran rocker Paul Weller to win Best Male Solo Artist at various William Hill shops.

 

Each bet was around £50 and was placed at different branches around London, making them virtually untraceable.

 

Weller's odds have now been cut from 5/1 as an outsider to 1/5 as the favourite.

 

Other major bookmakers, Ladbrokes, Paddy Power and Tote, have now all followed William Hill's lead - with some sources claiming that the winners' information may have been leaked.

 

The Brits are judged by a Voting Academy of 1,000 people from the music industry whose votes are collected online before being counted and independently verified by official scrutinisers.

 

A Brits spokesman would not say who had access to the results, adding: "Every precaution is taken to keep results under lock and key."

 

Weller is in the Best Male Solo Artist category alongside Ian Brown, James Morrison, The Streets and Will Young.

 

However, punters can still place a bet on who is likely to win the Best Single, the only award voted for by the public.

 

Girls Aloud are faves at 13/8, with Duffy 7/4, Coldplay 3/1, Leona Lewis 8/1 and Scouting For Girls 14/1.

 

The live show is on ITV1 at 8pm on Wednesday.

Who the chuffin' hell is voting for Girls Aloud for Best Single..?!? Jeez...:rolleyes:

 

I'll be so ashamed to be British if they win...

Eeeek!

 

The Sun seems to think Coldplay could go home empty handed :confused:

Left out in the Cold

 

THE Brits have a cruel history of sending big names home empty-handed.

 

Last year LEONA LEWIS was tipped to clean up — she left with nothing. LILY ALLEN was favourite to land a clutch the year before — she didn’t.

 

And CRAIG DAVID famously earned nine nominations before leaving with a scowl and a promise never to return.

 

This year word is filtering through that COLDPLAY could be the most high-profile casualty yet.

 

A Brits source said: “Coldplay are buzzing about the awards. They love being a part of the biggest night in British music and have been looking forward to it.

 

“They have just arrived back from Japan after another long stint on the road and want to enjoy a successful night on home soil.

 

Slap

 

“Leaving with nothing would really hurt the band. After the year they have had it would be a real slap in the face to see someone else walk off with the awards.”

 

CHRIS MARTIN, GUY BERRYMAN, JOHNNY BUCKLAND and WILL CHAMPION are nominated for Best Group, Best Live Act, Best Album and Best Single.

 

The lads deserve to fill the mantelpiece of their north London bakery HQ with silverware for a year spent touring, releasing free material for fans and entertaining millions.

 

But those qualities don’t always tickle the Brits Academy.

 

If SCOUTING FOR GIRLS win Best Live Act I am leaving the country.

 

It’s close between Coldplay and TAKE THAT for Best Group. Of all the categories, man band fan Chris would mind missing out to them the least of all. Best album is tighter than ROD STEWART — with DUFFY, ELBOW and RADIOHEAD all in with a strong shout.

 

So that leaves Sun readers to save the day. And I am urging you to vote like you have been buying Coldplay records to save Chris and co from an unfair humiliation at Earls Court tomorrow.

Viva La Vida is the best single by far in the British Single category and they should romp home with your support.

 

Get on the phone and vote NOW.

BUMP!

 

Make sure they don't go away empty handed :D

Wow. So, The Sun is backing the boys. That's pretty cool.

Eeeek!
