Emeli Sande has the most Brit nominations, up for four awards including British Album of the Year.

On 21 January 2012 Beyonce will perform the American national anthem at Barack Obama's second presidential inauguration.

She'll follow that in February by performing at the high profile half-time show at the US Super Bowl.

Then later in February Beyonce will release a documentary film about herself called Life is But a Dream.
