OUR AWARDS SHOW BEHAVIOUR GUIDE

BAD BEHAVIOUR AT THE BRITS

What do you get when you combine lots of musicians, lots of attitude, big egos and free booze…? The answer is of course bad behaviour! So here’s our quick guide on what to avoid.

Yes, the ingredients of a typical music awards show can be a heady cocktail indeed, and sometimes you get people doing things their mums, their agents (and they, the next day) regret. Our selection of videos are infamous examples of how not to behave should you ever have to take to the stage yourself.
In the video above we have a rather inebriated and confused Brandon Block over whom Ronnie Wood throws his water. Take it easy and listen carefully to the announcements so that you don’t think you’ve won something you haven’t.
The Brandon Block incident took place back in 2000. Also in that year, Robbie Williams challenged Liam Gallagher to a fight (below). It probably seemed like a good idea at the time…

Throwing your weight around can be crass, but throwing objects can be down right dangerous. A decade on, Liam Gallagher suggested that we “live forever” immediately prior to potentially bringing about demise of an onlooker by hurling his BRIT Award statuette into the audience. This video also features the special skill of hurling quick insults, courtesy of Mr Peter Kay.

Another useful tip is to have a good hanky with you… just to avoid the likes of Adele’s little mishap during her recent Grammy acceptance speech. Eugh!

The final rule we would suggest is: don’t embarrass your audience. In 2012 Mariah Carey gave a bizarre acceptance at the Palm Springs International Film Festival. Let’s see what the stars at tonight’s BRIT Awards have in store for us. Let’s hope they’ve read this - or that their mums aren’t going to be watching.

Which memorable moments have we omitted. Let us know - or tweet us @WE7Radio with your suggestions.
