Styles and Beyoncé took home the gender-neutral awards introduced last year after the BRIT Awards got rid of female and male distinctions.

Just a week after scoring awards from Grammy 2023, Harry Styles took home four trophies at this year’s BRIT Awards. Aside from winning the most coveted Album of the Year for Harry’s House, the English singer-songwriter also bagged the Artist of the Year, Song of the Year (As It Was), and Best Pop/R&B Act.

In the celebration that honors the best music of Britain, Beyoncé was named Best International Artist, while her Renaissance chart-topper single, Break My Soul, was hailed as International Song of the Year.

On the other hand, the indie rock duo Wet Leg won Group of the Year and Best New Artist after getting four nods in the nominations. Both Styles and Beyoncé scored the newly introduced awards for the gender-neutral categories introduced last year after the BRIT Awards made a move to get rid of female and male designations.
