The combination of Danger Mouse and Cee-Lo Green who form the entity we've come to know as Gnarls Barkley was nominated for five Grammys, and won two for 'Best Alternative Music Album'and 'Best Urban/Alternative Performance' single.

Gnarls' awards season continued with the 27th Annual Brit Awards, for which the duo received three nominations, including 'Best International Act', 'Breakthrough International Act' and "Best International Album'.

In addition, Crazy has earned a Favorite Song nomination for Nickelodeon's 20th Anniversary Kids' Choice Awards, taking place in Los Angeles on March 31st.

They also recently graced the famed Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue alongside supermodel Jessica White. No strangers to dressing up for photo shoots, they've adopted characters from movies such Wayne's World, A Clockwork Orange, Superman and Napoleon Dynamite on a regular basis. Why you ask- Ceelo Green recently stated in an interview, "It was to deter any one particular demographic or audience from associating themselves directly with us as far as to say, 'Well, they're emo or they're alternative',"

Gnarls Barkley is about to wrap up a US tour with Red Hot Chili Peppers before heading to Australia for the V Festival.
