The singer’s hit song Padam Padam wasn’t nominated for a BRIT Award in the Best International Song category, disappointing her passionate fan base.
Kylie is getting ready to sing at the award ceremony in March and has been nominated for International Artist of the Year.
Fans of the 55-year-old, meanwhile, are upset that her song Padam Padam—her first to reach the top 10 singles rating in 12 years—was left off of the BRIT award nominee list.
What Was I Made For by Billie Eilish, Flowers by Miley Cyrus, Paint the Town Red by Doja Cat, Calm Down by Rema, Kill Bill by SZA, and Vampire by Olivia Rodrigo were among the tracks that did make it to the nominations.
Fans who were upset by the rejection flocked to X to express their opinions. One said, “Padam Padam not up for International Song…We riot.”
Someone another added, “we need to talk about REAL award snubs: kylie minogue not being nominated best pop song of the year for the BRITs.”
“Kylie snubbed by the Brits, I’m going to off someone…” last week, another became enraged, and a third added:
However, one fan attempted to clarify why the song was left off the list by writing, “People kicking off that Padam Padam isn’t nominated here.” Sales and streams determine this category. The Academy votes for their favorite song among the Top 10 most popular international songs throughout the qualifying period. The Academy chose Kylie (International Artist) with good reason!
