The BRIT Awards 2023 have rounded out their performers list for the big night later this month.
Scottish singer-songwriter Lewis Capaldi will join the likes of Harry Styles, Sam Smith and Wet Leg as part of the performing line-up.
Cat Burns, David Guetta & Becky Hill & Ella Henderson, Lizzo, Kim Petras and Stormzy will also hit the stage, with comedian Mo Gilligan on hosting duties for a second year.
Lewis is also nominated for Song of the Year for Forget Me, and will battle it out with the likes of George Ezra, Ed Sheeran & Elton John, and rapper Dave in the category.
Speaking in a statement announcing the news, the Before You Go hitmaker said: “Last time I played The BRIT Awards I was so scared that I had a panic attack before I went on, and then got hammered afterwards. Looking forward to more of the same this year x"
Having kept the producers on their toes during his 2021 BRIT Awards speech, which involved some rather colourful language, we're sure telly bosses will be keeping a watchful eye on the star.
On the hilarious artist’s inclusion in this year’s ceremony, a source added to The Sun: “The Brits have got a stellar night of music planned with some of the country’s biggest artists.
“With Lewis you never know what you’re going to get so he will certainly be keeping the crowd – and Brits bosses – on their toes.”
Meanwhile, fellow performers Harry Styles and Wet Leg are tied in first place with the most nominations on the night with four each, with the former One Direction singer landing in Artist of the Year, Song of the Year for As It Was, Best Pop Act and Album of the Year for Harry's House.
Stormzy will battle it out in three different categories, while the likes of George Ezra, Sam Smith, The 1975 and Arctic Monkeys also gained two nominations each.
In the best Alternative Act category, Tom Grennan will face The 1975, Arctic Monkeys, Wet Leg and Nova Twins. Sam Ryder will have to see off fierce competition from Mimi Webb and Rina Sawayama for Best New Artist.
The BRIT Awards 2023 will take place Saturday 11th February at The O2 arena in London, broadcast exclusively on ITV1 and ITVX, in its first ever Saturday night slot, from 8.30pm.
