Meanwhile, pop princess Alesha Dixon will make her first appearance as a solo artist after singing with Misteeq at the first event back in 2003.
Hot new breakthrough act Metro Station, featuring Miley Cyrus’ older brother Trace, make their first appearance at the event after a successful start to 2009, while hit dance producer Calvin Harris is set to return after a thrilling performance in 2007.
