Charli xcx turns the Brits into Brats as she takes five gongs
The Observer
|March 02, 2025
All-conquering artist follows up on her bumper summer by lifting second-highest number of wins in a single year
Charli xcx has won five Brit awards, including album of the year for her summer-defining, magnificently debauched album Brat.
At the ceremony in London's O2 Arena, she was also awarded British artist of the year, song of the year for Guess (featuring Billie Eilish), and one of the five genre awards, for dance act.
Earlier last week she was named songwriter of the year. The wins cap a zeitgeist-surfing year for the singer, whose knowingly trashy sound and look was so distinctive it gave rise to a whole cultural phenomenon: "Brat summer".
