Ant & Dec have been confirmed as the hosts of The Brit Awards 2015.

The I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! pair will take over duties from James Corden, who has fronted the ceremony for the past four years.

The 2015 show will mark 14 years since the Geordie duo last hosted the music event, with Ant & Dec stating: "We're really excited to be hosting the Brits again next year - it is undoubtedly the biggest night in the British music calendar.

"We're especially excited now we're number one recording artists ourselves. We'll be offering our advice to the fledgling pop stars backstage as to how to have a number one hit, as long as they're prepared to wait 19 years for their records to top the chart like ours did."

BRITs chairman Max Lousada added: "Ant & Dec are two of the most popular TV broadcasters this country has ever produced and it's a real honour to have them take centre stage once again to host the Brits. "It's great that these two pillars of British TV will be part of a night about celebrating icons in British music."

The announcement comes after the news that artist Tracey Emin will be designing next year's trophy.

The Brit Awards 2015 takes place on Wednesday, February 25 at London's O2 Arena. We can't wait...
