Brit acts revealed

Brit organisers have announced performers for the ceremony including Paul Weller, who receives an outstanding contribution award, and reports suggest Noel and Liam Gallagher are feuding over who sings.

Brit organisers have revealed that the line up of acts set to appear at this year's ceremony includes Paul Weller, Coldplay, the Kaiser Chiefs, Kelly Clarkson, KT Tunstall and Kanye West. Weller is to receive an award for his outstanding contribution to music of course, and will therefore finish the show. A spokesman said of that award: "It is reserved for those whose influence, longevity and creativity put them in the very top ranks of UK artists. Paul Weller is an artist who scores on every measure and typifies the range and quality of British music at its best."

Elsewhere in Brits news, Noel and Liam Gallagher are rumoured to be appearing at the awards event and are expected to play with the aforementioned Weller, but are also reported to be falling out over who gets to sing. According to The Mirror's 3am girls, a source said: "It's hilarious. They're both really keen to perform but they're at each others' throats over who gets to sing. Noel is insisting on singing whatever song they choose to perform and then Liam kicked off because he said he doesn't want to stand at the back of the stage while Noel steals the limelight."
