As if today hasn’t been exciting enough already with the announcement of the Oscar nominations, now the BRIT Awards are out.
This year’s biggest heavyweight by far is Sam Smith with five nominations, though Ed Sheeran has three nods, and FKA Twigs, Ella Henderson and Alt-J have all got two nominations.
The awards take place on February 25, and we’re obviously hoping for loads of drunken antics and controversy (come on, celebs).
Enough yakking from us – here’s the list of awards and nominees in full.
