Celebrities like Olivia Atwood, Kelly Osbourne, and Maya Jama geared up for the 2026 BRIT Awards on Saturday night. Prior to the event, stars began their preparations for the red carpet moments. Olivia gave a glimpse of her intense gym session on Instagram, showcasing her workout in a sports bra.
The Brit Awards ceremony will be held at Co-op Live in Manchester and broadcast live on ITV and ITVX from 8:15 pm, as well as on YouTube from 8:45 pm. Comedian Jack Whitehall will host the show, and winners will receive the iconic BRITs trophy designed by Matthew Williamson.
Kelly, whose father Ozzy Osbourne is receiving the BRITs Lifetime Achievement award, shared a photo from the makeup chair in her hotel suite. Maya, the host of Love Island, managed to fit in her exercise routine before the event.
The BRIT Awards this year see a significant shift with 70% of nominations going to female or non-binary artists. Lola Young and Olivia Dean lead with five nominations each, followed by Lily Allen with three nods for her album “West End Girl.”
Olivia, who made history by topping both UK singles and albums charts, is nominated in five categories and will perform at the ceremony. British rapper Dave has three nominations, while Raye, who won big last year, is nominated in one category and set to perform.
Raye, also known as Rachel Keen, expressed gratitude for the opportunity to perform at the BRIT Awards. The event promises to be a glittering spectacle with outstanding talent and recognition for diverse artists.
