Lady Gaga: set to become a Pet Shop Girl?

The 2009 Brit Awards ceremony is less than three days away, so naturally, the British media is busy speculating on what will and won't happen there.

To save you the trouble, MusicRadar has trawled the internet to come up with the following Brits-related rumours, some of which are probably true, and some of which are probably… well, not so true.

1. The Pet Shop Boys will go Ga Ga

Last week, The Pet Shop Boys debunked rumours that they were planning to duet with The Killers at this year's ceremony, but did admit that they had "two guests" lined up to perform with them.

Well, it seems that one of these will be Lady Ga Ga, who may or may not be hauled on stage to perform What Have I Done To Deserve This?, which was originally sung by Dusty Springfield. The Outstanding Contribution To Music Award winners scored a collaborative hit with it in 1987.

2. Leona Lewis won't turn up

The Daily Star reports that Lewis was "shocked" not to win anything at last year's awards, and is worried that she won't pick up anything this time around, either.

Surprisingly, she isn't even nominated in the Best British Female category, and her one chance of glory comes in the lottery that is the Best British Single section (it's voted for by the public, after all), where she's picked up a nod for Better In Time (see below).

All of this being the case, the word is that she'll stay away.
