In preparation for tonight’s Brit Awards broadcast, print off a few of these and play along with our official Pop Hunter Brit Awards Pool. Will Adele look sad adjacent to a piano? Will a member of JLS bare his nipples? Will Emeli Sandé’s hair be over 4 inches tall? If you think you know the answers to these questions, get a pool going and rob your friends.

In preparation for tonight’s Brit Awards broadcast, print off a few of these and play along with our official Pop Hunter Brit Awards Pool. Will Adele look sad adjacent to a piano?
