BRITS LINEUP EXPANDS
2/5/20

Lizzo and Dave (the latter pictured here) have been added to the line up for The BRIT Awards, joining Billie Eilish, Celeste, Harry Styles, Lewis Capaldi, Mabel and Stormzy for the 40th edition of what's set to be an extra special (and sizable) show.

With UMG CEO David Joseph newly in charge as BRITs Chairman, the ceremony has had a number of shake-ups, including an extended stage that takes up more floor space in the O2 Arena. That means some tables have been relegated to balcony boxes, or done away with entirely, causing many guest-list headaches. How will the extra space impact the ceremony and atmosphere on the floor in London on 2/18?

Aside from Lizzo and Billie Eilish, who will battle it out for International Female, all performers are nominated in multiple categories, suggesting some wins are on the cards. Celeste has already been crowned Rising Star.

Also, if Scotland votes for independence, will Capaldi be eligible for a SCOTTY?
