Corset-less Duffy's dress problem
February 13, 2009 
Welsh pop singer Duffy has revealed that she ripped the dress she had planned to wear to the Brit awards because she was struggling to get into it - a problem that could have been resolved if she had worn an underbust corset.
The 24-year-old songbird has been nominated in four categories including Best British Single and Best Female Solo Artist at the forthcoming music awards.
She is also performing at the star-studded event on February 18th, so she had bought a beautiful dress to wear for the occasion in advance, which she unfortunately tore subsequently.
"It was a nightmare. I thought I had my dress sorted but I ripped it trying to squeeze into it," Duffy told BBC Radio One.
Nevertheless, Duffy is looking forward to her performance and has promised fans something very special.
"It's going to be a real moment. It's a really special arrangement and I've taken lots of care preparing it. It's a solo performance, a different recording of something you will know," she revealed.
