Charli XCX Dominates BRIT Awards, Critiques ITV's Nipple Complaints

Charli XCX made headlines at the 2025 BRIT Awards by winning five awards, including Artist of the Year, for her album 'Brat'. During her acceptance speech, she humorously addressed complaints from ITV about her sheer black dress, stating, 'I feel like we’re in the era of free the nipple though, right?' Her remarks sparked applause and highlighted her defiance against industry norms. Charli also expressed gratitude to her collaborators, including her fiancé George Daniel and A.G. Cook, while encouraging fellow artists to embrace their uniqueness. Despite her success, the event was noted for the absence of major British stars like Adele and Ed Sheeran, leaving Charli to dominate the evening's spotlight. This year's BRITs showcased a new generation of artists, with Charli's wins underscoring her impact on the music scene.
