The 2025 Brit Awards ceremony was a night to remember, with Charli XCX dominating the awards, winning five prizes, including best artist, best album, and song of the year. US star Chappell Roan won two awards, while Ezra Collective, The Last Dinner Party, Fontaines DC, and Stormzy each took home one award. The ceremony was hosted by Jack Whitehall, who made a welcome return after four years away. The night was marked by memorable performances, including a five-act melodrama by Jade Thirlwall and a jazz anthem by Ezra Collective. However, the ceremony was not without controversy, with some winners using their speeches to criticize the music industry and ITV facing potential backlash over censorship. Despite this, the night was a celebration of British music, with many winners and performers using their platforms to promote their art and advocate for change.
