Hes not classed as a British citizen anymore.

[eirian]

I heard that he carried both a British and American Passports.....

[AtariLegend]

He sold his soul to America.

You don't have to be British to win a Brit Award

[T_Roxie]

They'd never give him one anyway...he's too rock n' roll

[Mr Rage]

I'm thinking along the lines of a lifetime achievement award

[hebbesy]

Life time achievement pa whats he contributed to music 

Nope my guess is that Sting or Phil Collins will get another one this year.

i was thinking the other day, can he get a nighthood or what ever its call, Sir saul hudson

[Mr Rage]

I doubt it.

Brian May, Jimmy Page and Eric Clapton all got knighted a few years ago but there all still British. (I might be wrong about this but I'm sure I read about it somewhere)

I guess he's eligble, but there's a difference between that and actually getting one

Yes, just to play a guitar solo on Buckingham Palace like Brian May.

None of them were knighted. BM and EC are CBEs, and JP is OBE which are lesser honours than knighthood. I think the only rock'n'roll knights or 'sirs' are Paul McCartney, Mick Jagger and Elton John (and Cliff Richard.) It is possible for non UK citizens to get honorary knighthoods (Giuliani and Geldof for example) but they aren't allowed to call themselves 'sir'.

Dual citizenship isn't handed out just because you're born in one country and move to another. It's usually the result of special circumstances, where two governments agree to recognise dual-citizenship for a certain group of people for political reasons (usually displacement due to civil unrest - or in britain's case, colonisation :p).
