The nominations for the 2010 BRIT Awards were announced today at London's O2 Arena and JLS, Lily Allen and Lady Gaga are leading the pack.
X Factor runners-up JLS scored a triple whammy, being nominated for British Single, British Group, and British Breakthrough Act. They will be battling it out with winner Alexandra Burke for a spot in the British Single shortlist. Surprisingly, Burke only received one nomination.
The recently retired Lily Allen also received three nods for her album It's Not Me, It's You. She's nominated for British Female, British Album, and British Single.
In the international categories, Lady Gaga, who scored three UK #1 singles in the past year, scored three nominations herself for Best Female, Best Album, and Breakthrough Act. Last year, Gaga was invited to perform "What Have I Done To Deserve This?" with last year's Contribution to Music honorees Pet Shop Boys. This year's honoree is Robbie Williams, who is also nominated for British Male Artist. Robbie has the distinction of winning the most awards at the BRITS with eleven awards.
