Emma Willis favourite to host Brit Awards

James Corden is to quit his job as the host of the Brit Awards and Coral bookmaker has installed Big Brother presenter Emma Willis as the 6-1 favourite to replace the Gavin and Stacey star. Comedian Jack Whitehall is the 7-1 second favourite to take over, whilst Radio One DJ Nick Grimshaw is also a contender to land the gig at 8-1.

“Emma Willis’ profile has rocketed recently and now as the new face of The Voice, she is becoming a household name in Britain. We believe she is the front-runner to take over from James Corden, but organisers may be looking for another comedian and Jack Whitehall would certainly fill the gap”, commented Coral’s Nicola McGeady.

**Who will replace James Corden as the Brit Awards host?

6 Emma Willis, 7 Jack Whitehall, 8 Nick Grimshaw, 9 Fearne Cotton, 10 Peter Kay, 12 Marvin Humes, 14 Alan Carr, 14 Ant & Dec, 16 Greg James, 16 John Bishop, 20 Chris Evans, 20 Davina McCall, 25 Gary Barlow, 25 Holly Willoughby, 33 Jools Holland, 33 The Osbournes, 40 Cat Deeley, 40 Cheryl Cole, 50 Jonathan Ross, 50 Mel B, 66 Russell Brand, 100 Geri Halliwell.
