Barlow angry at Brit Academy snub

Gary Barlow has hit out at the Brit Academy for failing to appreciate Take That.

The band won awards for Best Single and Best Live Act at Wednesday's Brits, but Barlow is annoyed that they only triumphed in categories voted for by the public.

They lost out to the Arctic Monkeys for both Best Group and Best Album, which are chosen by the Academy.

He told The Sun: "It's amazing that when the public get to vote we always do well. It's brilliant. But it gets to me that whenever we have been nominated for other awards we always get overlooked.

"It’s a disgrace. I think we were in with a shout this year but it just goes to show we don't fit the mould."
