BRITS TO GIVE SWIFT ICON AWARD

Taylor Swift will receive the BRITs Global Icon Award, making her the first female artist to receive the honor.

The U.K’.s biggest-selling artist of 2021, Swift will receive the award for her impact on music across the world and achievements to date. Previous winners were Elton John, Robbie Williams and David Bowie.

Like all the winners Tuesday night, Swift will be presented with two trophies; it’s the BRITs’ first collaborative double-trophy design, created by Es Devlin OBE and Yinka Ilori MBE. Each winner is encouraged to award the second trophy to someone else—a family member, friend, neighbor, colleague, fellow artist, essential worker or another person important to them.
