Robbie Williams and Madonna Honoured

Once again the British public have proved their inane daftness by inducting some extremely strange choices into the UK Music Hall Of Fame.
In conjunction with a Channel 4 TV series shown each Sunday evening the public were asked to choose their favourite act from a select few to represent a decade of music since the 1950's with over 1.6 million viewers voting.
The Hall Of Fame also inducted honorary members. They were Madonna, Bob Marley, Elvis Presley, U2 and The Beatles.
All the above were honoured in a ceremony at London's Hackney Empire.
Madonna said: "It means a lot to me that so many nice things have been said about me and that I have been voted into the UK Hall Of Fame."
Viewers voted as follows:
1990's - Robbie Williams (This performer beat Nirvana, Blur and Oasis, how?)
1980's - Michael Jackson (Fair Enough)
1970's - Queen (Whatever)
1960's - The Rolling Stones (Damn Right!)
1950's - Cliff Richard (There was no one else alive then)
Chris Blackwell, the man who founded Island Records and introduced reggae to Britain also received an honorary trophy.
The ceremony will be shown on Channel 4 on Sunday.
