JARVIS COCKER, once a geeky sex symbol of 90s Britpop and MICHAEL JACKSON an-
tagoniser, is due to return to the BRIT AWARDS after being banned for over ten
years.
The stringy former PULP lead singer has been nominated for Best Male in the
show – meaning Cocker will return to the awards ceremony for the first time
since his infamous stage invasion in 1996.
Cocker appeared on stage as music legend Jackson was performing a slightly
over-the-top version of EARTH SONG and appeared to mock the US singer.
However, not everyone was amused, as the COMMON PEOPLE singer's protests
against Jackson's "Christ-like" performance was too rock 'n' roll for some.
Former BLUR frontman DAMON ALBARN recently branded Cocker's antics as "distur-
bing". He said he didn't like it when the bespectacled singer "pulled his pants
down" in front of Jacko.
"That just seemed really wrong. If someone is sick, he's not open to ridicule,"
Albarn spouted.
Meanwhile, the rest of the acts up for nomination at the Brits have been
unveiled, with AMY WINEHOUSE and LILY ALLEN among those in the running for
Best Female, and ARCTIC MONKEYS and MUSE going for top British group.
