Grande missed the show after calling in sick.Geoff Taylor, chief executive of the Brit Awards, said that “on doctor’s orders” Grande was unable to travel to the show.  Filling in for Grande was Liam Gallagher, who performed “Live Forever” for the tribute.English comedian, actor and television presenter Jack Whitehall handled the hosting duties for the awards show, which took place at The O2 Arena in London.
