TV duo Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, popularly known as Ant and Dec, have been named as the hosts of next year's Brit Awards.
The 2015 ceremony will mark 14 years since they last presented the music event. The duo will follow James Corden, who has stepped down after hosting the Brits for four years running, reported BBC online.
Ant & Dec said: "We're really excited to be hosting the Brits again next year - it is undoubtedly the biggest night in the British music calendar.
"We're especially excited now we're number one recording artists ourselves. We'll be offering our advice to the fledgling pop stars backstage as to how to have a number one hit, as long as they're prepared to wait 19 years for their records to top the chart like ours did."
Brits chairman Max Lousada added: "Ant & Dec are two of the most popular TV broadcasters this country has ever produced and it's a real honour to have them take centre stage once again to host the Brits.
