Kylie Minogue to receive Brits global icon award

Kylie Minogue will be honored with the Brits global icon award, becoming the fifth recipient of the prestigious accolade, which is designated for outstanding artists.

The singer Kylie Minogue will be the fifth recipient of the award that is “reserved for truly exceptional artists”.

Kylie Minogue, the internationally renowned pop star, is set to be honored with the Brits global icon award during this year’s ceremony, scheduled for March 2nd. This recognition celebrates her illustrious career spanning five decades. Alongside this prestigious acknowledgment, Kylie is also nominated for international artist of the year, competing against Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, and Lana Del Rey.

Additionally, Kylie is confirmed to perform at the event, joining fellow performers Dua Lipa and Raye. Expressing her excitement, Kylie remarked, “I am beyond thrilled to be honored with the global icon award and to be joining a roll call of such incredible artists.”

The Brits icon award is the highest distinction bestowed by the organizers and is reserved for artists of exceptional caliber. Notably, Taylor Swift was the first woman to receive this prestigious award in 2021, following in the footsteps of legends like Sir Elton John, David Bowie, and Robbie Williams.

Kylie, who has previously won three Brit awards, boasts an impressive sales record of over 80 million albums worldwide, including nine UK number one albums and seven UK number one singles.

In February, she received further accolades at the Grammys, winning the inaugural best pop dance recording award for her viral hit “Padam Padam,” which gained popularity last summer.

Other artists nominated for the 2024 Brit Awards include The Rolling Stones, Little Simz, and Arlo Parks.

Raye has broken a new record this year with seven nominations, making her the most nominated artist in a single year. Her nominations encompass categories such as best album, best new artist, best pop act, and artist of the year. Additionally, she has two tracks nominated for best song.

In response to criticism over the all-male best artist lineup in 2023, Brit organizers have expanded the artist of the year category from five to 10 slots this year.

The ceremony, set to take place at London’s O2 Arena, will be hosted by Clara Amfo, Maya Jama, and Roman Kemp.
