"AND THE WINNER IS... JAY...EH... EMM... IS THAT AN E?"

In the sort of desperate move which you don't actually need hindsight to see is a bad idea, Paris Hilton is being lined up to present an award at the Brits. The organisers think it'll add some glamour and a "did you see" factor; plus, since Warners help underwrite the event through the BPI, they'll see getting their "new Britney Spears" into a music event as a marketing return on their investment. Even better, of course, as she won't be singing, which wouldn't exactly help her sell records.

Paris Hilton is rich.
