2010 Brit Awards: Lady Gaga Sweep

Plus a lot of acts that nobody outside the UK could care less about...

By Blurt Staff

Dressed to kill (good fashion taste, that is), Lady Gaga brought home the Brit bacon last night at the annual Brit Awards with trophies for all three categories she was up for: Best International Album, International Breakthrough Act and Best International Female.

Other winners - many of whom, like Gaga, also performed at the show - included Lily Allen (Best British Female), Florence and the Machine (British Female Solo Artist), Dizzee Rascal (British Male Solo Artist), Kasabian (British Group) and JLS (British Breakthrough Act).

Who the hell is JLS? Come to think of it, who the hell are any of these people? And who ever heard of an awards category called "MasterCard British Album"? Anyhow, full list below, plus a video of Lady Gaga. There's plenty of highlights from the show already on YouTube if you are so inclined to check ‘em out.
