With five nominations, including one for album of the year with Brat, Charli XCX is in the lead at this year’s Brit Awards.
In addition, she is a nominee for song of the year, best pop and dance act, and artist of the year for Guess, which peaked at number one in August and included Billie Eilish.
Brat became a global movement after her sixth studio album was published in June. It was named the Collins Dictionary 2024 word of the year, and it even made its way into US politics when presidential contender Kamala Harris gave her social media accounts a brat branding.
Dua Lipa, a seven-time Brit winner, has been nominated for four awards, including pop act, which she won last year.
