Pic: Daft Junk; is that really Daft Punk at the Brits in Paddy Power pants?

Whether it is the French duo or not, the bookie has scooped a big dollop of publicity with these pictures from the Brits red carpet.

While many of us are focussed on the action in North London involving Arsenal and Bayern Munich, down the road at the O2 Arena in London the great and not so great of the music industry are having the annual Brit Awards.

And while the red carpet scene wouldn’t normally interest us too much, what Daft Punk, or two lads dressed as Daft Punk, rocked up in is well worth your attention.

The Get Lucky maestros turned up without trousers, proudly displaying the same underwear that got Nicklas Bendtner into a lot of trouble at Euro 2012.

Is it the real Daft Punk? How would we know anyway? Maybe it is the Rubberbandits on a bit of an undercover mission.

Here’s a #PricelessSurprise at the BRITs. Daft Punk. Up all night to get lucky…PANTS! #BRITs2014 pic.twitter.com/cWeXyYYBPl

Your guess is as good as ours but the one guaranteed thing is that the bookie has scored yet another PR coup.
