    Jingle Bell Ball 2012 Awards

    Ahead of the Jingle Bell Ball next month, Capital hands out special accolades to each of the artists performing on this year's line-up.

    1. Bruno Mars performs during the 2012 Victoria's Secret Show

      1. Most Liked On Facebook and Twitter: Bruno Mars

      When it comes to social networking, Bruno Mars definitely wins the award for the biggest reach with 13 million Twitter followers and a massive 27 million 'likes' on Facebook.

    2. Cheryl Cole performs at her 'A Million Lights' tour

      2. First Female Artist To Play Both Nights Of The Same Jingle Bell Ball: Cheryl Cole

      It's a good job Cheryl's a regular in the gym because she'll need all the energy she can get when she becomes the first female to play both nights of the Jingle Bell Ball in the same weekend this December. The 'Call My Name' star will play day one on her own before returning on the Sunday to perform with Girls Aloud.

    3. Rita Ora's Complex magazine photoshoot

      3. Sexiest Female Photo Shoot Of The Year: Rita Ora

      Rita's featured in several magazines to promote her new album 'Ora' over the last twelve months, but her photo shoot for Complex magazine made the most headlines earlier this year.

    4. Aston Merrygold revealing his abs on stage

      4. Best Abs: Aston Merrygold

      Why did Aston win the award for best abs? Just take a look at the picture.

    5. Bruno Mars is seen backstage at the Grammy Nominations concert

      5. Most Views On YouTube: Bruno Mars

      He's done it again. Bruno Mars wins the award for the most views on YouTube with 1.2billion total views for hits including the likes of 'Locked Out Of Heaven' and 'Marry You'.

    6. Caroline Flack and Harry Styles

      6. Most Complicated Love Lives: One Direction

      Not only has it been a busy year for One Direction on stage but the group's personal lives have also been in the spotlight - and it's not just Harry Styles. Liam, Niall, Louis and Zayn have also seen their romances capture the public's interest.

    7. Lawson's recording studio photo shoot

      7. Sexiest Male Photo Shoot Of The Year: Lawson

      The sexiest male photo shoot of the year goes to Lawson, who struck several sultry poses when we dropped by their studios during a recording session for their debut album 'Chapman Square'. Picture: Danny North

    8. Bruno Mars and JLS

      8. Most Number Ones On The Vodafone Big Top 40: Bruno Mars And JLS

      Picking up his third award here, it's Bruno Mars, whose singles 'Just the Way You Are', 'Grenade', 'The Lazy Song' and 'Locked Out Of Heaven' all went to number one. But it's not just Bruno's award, JLS have also enjoyed four number ones on the Vodafone Big Top 40.

    9. JLS on stage at the Jingle Bell Ball

      9. Most Jingle Bell Ball Appearances: JLS

      The award for the most Jingle Bell Ball appearances goes to JLS - they've appeared at every single event since 2009.

    10. Example in his 'Say Nothing' music video

      10. Funniest Twitter Feed: Example

      He's battled with the people of Wigan, dissed celebrities like Alexandra Burke and revealed that he doesn't like salted popcorn. Twitter doesn't get funnier than Example. Picture: Twitter

    11. Girls Aloud announce their return in Autumn 2012

      11. Best Comeback Of The Year: Girls Aloud

      The comeback of the year could only go to Girls Aloud. They'll be hitting the road next year to support their new greatest hits album 'Ten', but not before taking to the stage on the Sunday of this year's Jingle Bell Ball for their first arena performance in years.

    12. Conor Maynard promotes his album 'Contrast'

      12. The Can't Say No Award: Conor Maynard

      The girls just can't say no to this particularly Jingle Bell Ball star. Conor Maynard takes home the Can't Say No award for being one of the hottest males on the Jingle Bell Ball 2012 line-up.

    13. Little Mix perform 'Wings' live on stage

      13. The X Factor Seal Of Approval Award: Little Mix

      Following in the footsteps of JLS and One Direction, Little Mix arrive at this year's Jingle Bell Ball as certified The X Factor stars. Will their performance be packed with that X Factor magic? We reckon so.

    14. Pink's Try music video

      14. Outstanding Achievement Award: Pink

      With six studio albums, including her most recent release 'The Truth About Love', and millions of sales around the world, this year's outstanding achiever is the one and only Pink.

    15. The Script's 'Hall Of Fame' video shoot

      15. Hall Of Fame Award: The Script

      They sing about "standing in the hall of fame", so it was only fair to induct Danny O'Donoghue and co into this year's Hall Of Fame. Fresh from a collaboration with fellow The Voice UK mentor Will.i.am, The Script are one of the most coveted bands in music.

    16. Harley Alexander-Sule and Jordan Stephens from 'Rizzle Kicks'

      16. Most Likely To Get The Crowd Humping Award: Rizzle Kicks

      They've spent the year getting crowds (and James Corden) around the world to do their 'Mama Do The Hump' dance, so you can be sure that Harley and Jordan will get the Jingle Bell Ball crowd moving this December.

    17. Calvin Harris playing iTunes Festival 2012

      17. The Superstar DJ Award: Calvin Harris

      After collaborating with Rihanna on her hit single 'We Found Love' in 2011, Calvin has officially become the hottest DJ and producer on the planet. He's just released new album '18 Months', so you can be sure his Jingle Bell Ball set will be full of bangers. Picture: iTunes

    18. The Wanted promote their new single 'I Found You'

      18. The Most-Anticipated Album Of 2013 Award: The Wanted

      And finally, with 2013 on the horizon, The Wanted take home the award for the most-anticipated album of next year after deciding to delay their third album. With rumoured collaborations with LMFAO and Rita Ora potentially making an appearance, we can't wait to hear what the 'I Found You' stars come up with.
