The Brit Awards goes absolutely live on ITV1 for a second consecutive year. Expect the unexpected as this controversial pair lead the entertainment for the evening as the Osbournes come head to head with the biggest personalities in the UK music industry and all the Brit Awards 2008 winners.

Commenting on getting the most exciting job in music television, Sharon said, "Ozzy and I have been asked to host many awards shows in the past but this is by far the most prestigious and meaningful, especially for Ozzy as it's about the music. Ozzy and I are proud to be Brits and are both incredibly honoured to have been asked to help celebrate the best in music."

Ged Doherty, Chairman of the Brits committee, said "Rock 'n' Roll, glamour, humour and a touch of the unexpected... Sharon and Ozzy will bring all this to the Brits and more… I can't wait."
