UK rapper Tinie Tempah - who is hoping to celebrate his third UK number one single in a row this Sunday with 'Written In The Stars' - won the award for Best Newcomer.

Shortly after receiving his award, Tinie, 21, told BANG showbiz: "This means a lot because digital music is my generation, how I grew up - listening to and finding new music through the internet, as well as coming up through it - so to be recognised by the people who have voted means a lot."

Robbie Williams was named Best Male artist at the awards, while cartoon band Gorillaz accepted Artist of the Year and Best Artist Promotion awards with a specially recorded video message from bassist Murdoc.

Performances at the awards included US R 'n' B singer Ne-Yo - who took to the stage in a dapper suit, braces and a bowler hat to perform 'One In A Million', while British band McFly gave a rocking rendition of their latest single 'Party Girl'.

Other performers included Scouting For Girls, Roll Deep, and Marina and The Diamonds.
