Good evening…<br />
If you are reading this, it is<br />
Valentine’s Day and you’re<br />
seated in Earls Court <strong>with</strong> love<br />
and excitement in the air. You<br />
are at the first fully live<br />
televised <strong>BRIT</strong>s for 18 years<br />
and you can’t wait for the<br />
music to start.<br />
It’s been a great year for<br />
British music, which has achieved<br />
the highest ratio of sales for more than a decade.<br />
Seven out of the top 10 best selling albums were<br />
British, giving a superb start to three debut acts,<br />
and a special boost for three British female acts;<br />
Lily Allen, who is the most nominated artist,<br />
Corinne Bailey Rae, (high in the US Top 10 when<br />
we went to press) and finally, Amy Winehouse,<br />
who celebrates her UK No. 1 album. You’ll see two<br />
of these artists perform tonight, as well as six<br />
other acts who made headlines in 2006.<br />
This year our Outstanding Contribution Award<br />
goes to Oasis who need no further introduction<br />
and will certainly add to the “live” excitement on<br />
stage tonight.<br />
We would like to thank all of the performing<br />
artists for giving us their time and, of course, their<br />
music tonight. And we congratulate the nominees<br />
and winners of our cherished awards.<br />
It takes a huge team to put together an event as<br />
unique as the <strong>BRIT</strong> <strong>Awards</strong> and we would like to<br />
thank the hundreds of people who made tonight’s<br />
show possible, from my colleagues on the <strong>BRIT</strong>s<br />
Committee to all of those on our voting academy,<br />
the event director, Maggie Crowe, our television<br />
producer, Helen Terry, and our director Hamish<br />
Hamilton.<br />
We thank our sole sponsor MasterCard, Rita<br />
Broe and her team, Mark Wells and Guy Freeman<br />
at ITV and all of our media partners including our<br />
mobile partners O2 and Nokia.<br />
Above all, we thank you, our audience, for<br />
attending and ensuring a great night for our<br />
charity, the <strong>BRIT</strong> Trust, to whom all proceeds flow.<br />
On <strong>with</strong> the music!<br />

Party On<br />
Love is in the air at the <strong>BRIT</strong><br />
<strong>Awards</strong> VIP Party.<br />
<strong>The</strong> aftershow do will be the<br />
perfect place to snuggle up <strong>with</strong> your<br />
special squeeze, or flirt outrageously<br />
<strong>with</strong> someone new. Just shimmy up<br />
the escalators to Earls Court 1 to<br />
see what romantic treats are waiting<br />
there for you!<br />
<strong>The</strong> Valentine’s night bash takes<br />
place on Love Street. As you stroll<br />
hand-in-hand down the way, you will<br />
be wooed by irresistible delights.<br />
Drop in on the cabaret room, where<br />
you can feast yourself on comedy and<br />
entertainment, or indulge yourself<br />
<strong>with</strong> spin the bottle, a beau-selecting<br />
treat thanks to mysinglefriend.com.<br />
Perhaps you’ll head for the boudoir<br />
bar next, where you can rest awhile<br />
on a sumptuous four-poster, or make<br />
for the dancefloor, which will host<br />
spectacular burlesque strip shows at<br />
intervals throughout the night.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is so much for you and<br />
your boo to do. You can hop on the<br />
dodgems. Challenge each other on<br />
Nintendo Wii. Cosy up in a classic<br />
car. Or have a love poem specially<br />
written… if you know you’ve found<br />
<strong>The</strong> One, etch your love <strong>with</strong> an<br />
airbrush tattoo.<br />
Before you head home, treat<br />
yourself to Death by Chocolate, then<br />
treat your love <strong>with</strong> one of the flower<br />
stall’s 2,000 red roses. And if you<br />
choose to elope – and, as romantics,<br />
we hope you do - head for the Church<br />
of Las Vegas, where we have our very<br />
own Vegas Elvis issuing certificate<br />
saying you married at <strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong>s…<br />
From <strong>Show</strong> to Party<br />
Food Of Love<br />
Ladies and gentlemen, may we present<br />
your irresistible dinner.<br />
Tonight’s feast has been prepared<br />
by a dedicated team of sixty chefs, who<br />
have laboured <strong>with</strong> love to create the<br />
ultimate Valentine’s meal. As you can<br />
see, your table - decorated <strong>with</strong> cloths<br />
of the richest reds and pinks - is already<br />
prepared, and the evening promises to<br />
be a sumptuous affair.<br />
Soon, your meal will be served. A<br />
mouthwatering mezze starter selection<br />
is followed by the intense tastes of<br />
guinea hen served <strong>with</strong> pickled ginger<br />
and wasabi champ. Vegetarians can<br />
savour a darling goat’s cheese tomato<br />
bread and butter pudding, before dessert<br />
options for all include chocolate box<br />
truffles and a fine cheese platter. Each<br />
serving of food comes <strong>with</strong> a little extra<br />
love – 13,500 edible hearts adorn the<br />
dishes as decoration.<br />
Don’t forget that all pre-ordered<br />
wine, beer and champagne is stored<br />
under the table. You are welcome to add<br />
to your order at any time except during<br />
the main show. Meanwhile, let’s raise a<br />
toast to tonight – it’s a Valentine’s night<br />
you’ll treasure…<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> School<br />
<strong>The</strong> famous <strong>BRIT</strong> School in Croydon has seen 15<br />
years’ of graduates walk through its doors.<br />
Established in 1991, <strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> School receives<br />
joint funding from the Department of Education<br />
and Employment and, of course, <strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> Trust. In<br />
return, this unique school for performing arts has<br />
given the music industry many of its leading lights.<br />
Enthusiastic ex-students can be found working in<br />
all sectors of the media and arts worlds, while<br />
the role-call of famous faces who have benefi tted<br />
from a unique <strong>BRIT</strong>s education includes band<br />
members from <strong>The</strong> Kooks, <strong>The</strong> Feeling and Athlete.<br />
Katie Melua, Amy Winehouse, Leona Lewis and<br />
Imogen Heap also learned their trade here.<br />
Because of its unique charitable status,<br />
students at <strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> School do not pay school<br />
fees. This allows freedom of opportunity to<br />
talented applicants, regardless of their family<br />
situation or background.<br />
So far, more than 7,000 students aged 14-19 have<br />
enjoyed studying in one of seven specialisations<br />
– music, musical theatre, technical theatre, dance,<br />
media and art and design. <strong>The</strong> school has an<br />
excellent academic record and is proud of its<br />
mix of traditional and vocational learning.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong>s is proud to support the stars<br />

You Get What You Give<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> <strong>Awards</strong> <strong>2007</strong> is a charity event<br />
<strong>BRIT</strong>s organisers are proud of the show’s tradition<br />
of donating all profits from the award ceremony,<br />
including money made from TV rights and<br />
merchandise, to deserving good causes. This<br />
makes it unique among music awards shows.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> <strong>Awards</strong> has raised a mammoth<br />
£7 million pounds to date. <strong>The</strong> money is collected<br />
and distributed by the music industry’s charity<br />
body, <strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> Trust.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Trust was formed in 1989 by the BPI, the<br />
organisation that represents the record industry in<br />
Britain. <strong>The</strong>se days, it organises a full calendar of<br />
fundraising projects each year. <strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> <strong>Awards</strong> is<br />
the largest event, generating over half of the<br />
amazing 13 million pounds raised so far.<br />
All money collected is then awarded in the<br />
form of donations to a wide variety of charities that<br />
embody <strong>The</strong> Trust’s guiding ethos – to encourage<br />
and educate young people through music. A<br />
great many grassroots community projects have<br />
received grants, including <strong>The</strong> Chicken Shed<br />
<strong>The</strong>atre Company, LIPA, Heart’n’Soul, Drugscope<br />
and the Roundhouse Trust.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> Trust is also committed to give<br />
its main fi nancial support to two very special<br />
organisations, Nordoff-Robbins Music <strong>The</strong>rapy<br />
and <strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> School.<br />
To learn more about the <strong>BRIT</strong> Trust,<br />
visit www.brittrust.co.uk<br />
Nordoff-Robbins<br />
Music <strong>The</strong>rapy<br />
<strong>The</strong> Nordoff-Robbins organisation uses Music<br />
<strong>The</strong>rapy to provide a brighter world for children and<br />
adults who have problems <strong>with</strong> communication.<br />
Often isolated and unable to express themselves<br />
due to brain injury, learning difficulties or autistic<br />
spectrum disorders, participants are encouraged to<br />
use sound and music to gain access to otherwise<br />
unreachable feelings and perhaps communicate<br />
them for the first time. Demand for therapy is high,<br />
and there is always more to be done. <strong>The</strong> charity<br />
runs a centre of excellence in London, and has 21<br />
outreach programmes, using music therapy to<br />
benefit more that 10,000 people so far.<br />
<strong>The</strong> techniques used at Nordoff-Robbins<br />
centres were developed in the 1960s are<br />
now recognised as an invaluable part of<br />
treatment around the world.<br />
Despite widespread recognition from health<br />
practitioners, Nordoff-Robbins Music <strong>The</strong>rapy<br />
receives no government funding and relies<br />
on donations alone.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir donations are raised through a calendar<br />
of fundraising activities throughout the year,<br />
including, of course, <strong>The</strong> <strong>BRIT</strong> <strong>Awards</strong>. With a<br />
minimum of £2 million needed annually to<br />
continue the good work, private donations<br />
are always welcome.<br />
