A 33º Cerimónia dos Brit Awards decorreu ontem, 20 de Fevereiro, na O2 Arena em Londres. No que à red carpet diz respeito, as atenções caíram este ano sobre o pai de Amy Winehouse. Mitch Winehouse chegou ao evento acompanhado da mulher, Janis, e ao retirar o casaco e colete exibiu o rosto da filha estampado nas costas da camisa. A cantora, falecida em 2011, encontrava-se nomeada para Melhor Artista Britânica Feminina mas acabou por não vencer.
