Meanwhile, organisers have also unveiled the statue for this year’s BRIT Award.

As part of a new initiative, organisers have created a new blank canvas trophy which will be restyled each year by leading British creative individuals.

This year’s award has been re-styled by fashion designer Vivienne Westwood, and boasts a flowing dress embossed with the British flag.

It also features the slogan: "Stop! Climate Change."

The BRIT Awards ceremony will be broadcast live on ITV1 at 8pm.
