The Brit Awards 2024 has announced nominees for this year's ceremony with the majority of the list dominated by female artists, either as solo acts, or part of an all-female group.
Singer-songwriter Raye has landed the most nominations, with seven nods across Album of the Year, Artist of the Year, Best New Artist, Pop Act, and two entries for Song of the Year.
These include Raye's collaboration on 'Prada' with cassö and D-Block Europe, as well as the track 'Escapism' featuring 070 Shake. Last year the singer was featured in the BBC's Louis Theroux Interviews series.
Unsurprisingly, Taylor Swift landed a nomination for International Artist of the Year, alongside the likes of Kylie Minogue, Miley Cyrus, Lana Del Rey, Olivia Rodrigo, Caroline Polachek, Asake, Burna Boy, CMAT, and SZA.
Meanwhile, Barbie and Argylle star Dua Lipa is nominated for Artist of the Year and is confirmed to be performing at the show at London's O2 Arena. Dua is nominated alongside Digital Spy Rising winner and Top Boy star Little Simz, who is also shortlisted for Album of the Year, Artist of the Year, and Hip Hop / Rap / Grime Act.
Other nominations of note include Billie Eilish, for International Song of the Year with 'What Was I Made For', which soundtracked the billion-dollar grossing Barbie movie.
What to Read Next
Speaking about the nominations, Raye said: "I am completely floored to be recognised seven times this year. I was a BRIT school student and I remember how deeply I dreamed of one day being recognised at the BRITs. I am currently a mess of overwhelming emotions and confusion as to how this even happened to be honest."
Meanwhile, Table Manners podcast host and 'Free Yourself' singer Jessie Ware added: "It's always really special to be up for a BRIT award – this time feels just as special as the first, especially being nominated for Artist of the Year. More than ever, I truly know the artist that I have become and I’m enjoying making music and just having the best time! Can't wait to celebrate the event with everyone on the night."
The ceremony takes place on Saturday March 2 at The O2 arena and is broadcast live on ITV1 and ITVX.
