We are only a matter of weeks away now until The BRIT Awards 2019, when the world's biggest names in music will gather at London's 02 Arena. The show will be hosted by popular comedian Jack Whitehall.

Further on from last week's BRIT Award's news, that Calvin Harris, Dua Lipa, Sam Smith AND Rag'n'Bone Man are to all perform together, it has been announced today (Thursday 31st January) that record-breaking no. 1 artist Jess Glynne has been added to the show's line-up!

The British pop sensation will be joined by special guest and 5 x Grammy nominated artist H.E.R.

Speaking of the announcement, Jess said, “So excited to bring one of my favourite artists, H.E.R., to the UK and perform at the BRITs together... Y'all in for a treat!!”

H.E.R., the fast-emerging R&B singer from California has said “I love the UK and UK artists. It was a pleasure working with Jess on ‘Thursday’. So excited to be performing with her on The BRIT Awards. It’s going to be so empowering and fun!”

H.E.R.

The news comes as Jess picked up three nominations at this year's BRITs- including British Single of the Year, British Female Solo Artist and British Video of the Year.
