Hosted by Jason Derülo and Alesha Dixon, the awards this year came back as the second time to Glasgow's SECC on 5 October 2011. Jessie J won 4 awards while Boyz II Men received the award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. Other winners included Rihanna for Best International Act and Adele for Best R&B/Soul Act.
