...that she is, in fact, Australian. International Male Solo artist went to Kanye West, who's riff on humility - "it doesn't feel natural, but I hear it works for a lot of celebrities" - made for one of the funniest speeches of the night. And super-producer Mark Ronson won British Male Solo Artist, ignoring the fact that he only ever does collaborations - Winehouse, Lily Allen and Robbie Williams have all worked with the preternaturally youthful producer. (And before you ask, Winehouse didn't win anything because she wasn't up for anything: her Back to Black album that...
...Creator,” well, then I’m in love. She doesn’t have a record out yet, but be sure to download “Shove It,” or “Pretty Green” with British wunderkind Marc Ronson.

Rex and even a hint of Marc Bolan vocals. But it's the less cool, neglected hits from the mid-'70s that most enthuse Murdoch, who still sings...
Aboard a private Gulfstream jet to Ronson's Pull My Hair Out video shoot in Los Angeles, Dash brushes aside the skeptics. "With Jay done, we have to take some chances, try new things," he says. His entourage surrounds him. The head of his film business peruses a script (she recommends that Dash take a pass). A marketing guy is reading Mao in the Boardroom, while two others flip through a branding book. Dash punches at his BlackBerry. "This is the smallest jet we'll ever be on," he says. True--if Roc-A-Fella sails through the rough weather...
