The BRIT Awards 2015: Full Winners List
The big winners at this year's BRIT Awards
This year’s BRIT Awards are taking place at London’s 02 Arena tonight, hosting all of the biggest stars in the British music industry.
Ed Sheeran was the biggest winner at this year’s BRITs after walking away with gongs for Best Male Solo Artist and British Album Of The Year.
Royal Blood claimed the prize for Best British Group, trumping strong competition from acts such as One Direction, Clean Bandit and Coldplay.
Taylor Swift opened the show with a spectacular performance of ‘Blank Space’ before beating Beyonce to the Best International Female award.
Although Kanye West was in attendance, he didn’t interrupt her acceptance speech like he infamously did at the 2009 MTV Music Video Awards.
Instead he took to the stage for an explosive performance of his new single ‘All Day’, alongside flame throwers and a huge crowd of backing performers.
