Monkey joy, Winehouse woe

ARTIC Monkeys are set to dominate this year's NME Awards - while Amy Winehouse could end up being the biggest loser.

Winehouse, currently undergoing a stint in rehab, has been nominated for Villain of the Year alongside Prime Minister Gordon Brown, his predecessor Tony Blair and US President George Bush.

She will also battle Pete Doherty for the Worst Dressed title.

There is some good news, however, in the form of nominations for Best Solo Artist and Best Music DVD.

The winners will be announced at a London ceremony on February 28, to be broadcast on E4.
