Nominees news: Kate, Ed, Nicki and more

Another day, another collection of BRIT Awards with MasterCard nominees gossip. Today, we've got one new video, another breaking records and a very exciting potential collaboration between two BRITs nominees. Read on to find out who's been making headlines on 25 January 2012...

Kate Bush premieres 'Eider Falls At Lake Tahoe' video
Now this is an unusual turn up. Former pop recluse and British Female nominee at the BRIT Awards 2012 today unveiled her new video for the latest release from her '50 Words For Snow' album. It's pretty light on Kate (as it is an animated video) but it is rather special nonetheless.

Nicki Minaj smashes VEVO video record
Now, Nicki Minaj's latest video 'Stupid Hoe' is kinda rude - but it has also proven kinda popular! The International Female nominee today broke the VEVO record for the most watched video in its first 24 hours on the site, clocking up 4.8million views in one day. Now that's what you call a superstar.

JLS to work with Ed Sheeran on new album?
This is the kind of news we like - two of our favourite pop artists teaming up to work on a project together. This time around, it's four-time 2012 BRITs nominee Ed Sheeran and British Single nominees, JLS, who have teased the idea of working together on the boyband's next album. This is one we're desperate to see happen!

The BRITs do quite well online and on mobile
