Bummed that her recent album Endlessly has been received unenthusiastically, Duffy is thinking about putting her music career on the shelf.

The BRIT Awards, the UK’s version of our Grammys (only more xenophobic with separate categories for the British and for foreigners) were held yesterday in London.

Welsh-pop singer, Duffy, had her hit, “Mercy,” all over the U.S. radio this summer. It brought back the old school into the sexy new school sound.
Now, it seems like Duffy will gain a little more fame. She’s signed on to be the new face to help promote Diet Coke in regards to reaching the teen and twenties age target. Although most Diet Coke ads are often linked to chiseled bodies and stick figure models, they’re looking for a new direction this time.
Are you confused because they chose Duffy for going in the unattractive direction? We are too. So, we’ll just have to see what they come up with.
