By Boniface Ihiasota, USA
Top US singer Beyoncé Knowles and British actor and singer Harry Styles are expected to be among the frontrunners for prestigious awards at the 2023 Brit Awards.
The ceremony, hosted by British comedian Mo Gilligan, is set to take place on Saturday evening.
According to reports, Beyoncé is anticipated to win the International Artist of the Year award, while Styles is the favorite for the British Album of the Year for his record “Harry’s House.”
Despite their strong showings, the awards show has faced criticism for a lack of female representation in the best artist category.
Brit Awards Chairman Damian Christian expressed disappointment in the absence of female nominees, citing a lack of eligible releases from big female artists in 2022.
Other artists shortlisted for Best Artist of the Year include Stormzy, Central Cee, Fred Again, and George Ezra.
The Brit Awards, first held in 1977, have established themselves as one of the most prominent music awards ceremonies in the world.
