Brit Awards 2009 - Nominations Announced

The nominations for the 2009 Brit Awards were made yesterday. There were few shocks, most notably though, the UK's biggest current international Female Artist was not nominated for Best Female. Whatever you think of how Leona Lewis came to fame, she surely deserves to be nominated.

Duffy and Coldplay lead the way with four nominations each. A full list can be found here.

So, onto today's questions: -

  1. Who was the first professional boxer to defeat Joe Frazier today in 1973 in Jamaica?

  2. Which New York businessman and TV personality married his third wife Melania (right) today in 2005?

  3. A record number of eleven Victoria Crosses were awarded following which battle that began today in 1879 in South Africa?
Yesterday's Answers: 1. "The Kumars at No 42"; 2. Mackenzie Allen; 3. Concorde
