Over the years The BRIT awards has produced many cringe inducing moments of embarrassment and unintentional comedy, consequently there are those who don’t take it seriously. Anyway this years event, is presented by Ant McPartlin and Declen Donelly and takes place Wednesday 25th February 2015, and looks set to be just as kitch and ridiculous. This year Madonna had a bit of an unfortunate incident whilst performing her new song.
