The Ting Tings have criticised artists who think they are too cool for the Brit Awards.

The group, who are up for best album and best breakthrough act at the ceremony, said that reluctant invitees should stay away from tonight's event.

"I don't want to get into a slagging match so I won't mention names. But last year it was a shame some artists begrudgingly attended. I'm a big fan of pop and some rowdy behaviour is important," Yahoo News quotes singer Katie White as saying.

"But it's a bit stingy to accept all the free champagne and accolades and then just spend the rest of the night taking the p**s out of everyone else. Don't go if you don't want to enjoy it."

The Brit Awards will be shown on ITV1 at 8pm tonight.
