Harry Styles, Stormzy, George Ezra, Fred Again and Central Cee are up for best artist at the 2023 Brit Awards. So where are the women?
Sky News contacted representatives for the female and non-binary acts eligible for best artist this year, but none of the stars were available for comment., nor chart-topper and Glastonbury headliner Stormzy. And of course, it's subjective, but there has been plenty of debate surrounding the other slots.
"And that's all it is, it's just a conversation. I think people get so used to jumping down each other's throats and then nothing gets done because it turns into anger. But if you just talk, analyse, you know, recognise what's going on, hopefully the following year it could be fixed." However, he says it is important not to let any controversy overshadow things for the artists caught up in it through no fault of their own.
Next year, three-time Brit winner Smith will be eligible for a nomination for the first time since the changes in the category, following the release of their album Gloria.
