Lana Del Rey nominated for International Solo Female Artist at the BRIT Awards 2016

[theeternalstars 4,576]

In the category of International Female, BRITs regulars Björk and Lana Del Rey take on Ariana Grande, Courtney Barnett and Meghan Trainor, three artists who have never previously been nominated.

The last 12 months have been defining for Meghan Trainor. She scored two UK No. 1 singles and a UK No. 1 for her debut album, ‘Title’, and has now been rewarded with a BRITs nomination.

 

A true BRITs veteran, Björk has nine BRIT Award nominations and four wins under her belt. Despite International Female nominations in 2002, 2006, 2008 and 2012, Bjork last took home the trophy in 1998.

 

Another experienced BRIT Award nominee is Lana Del Rey. This is her fourth nomination and she has won twice before. In 2012 she won International Breakthrough Act, and won International Female the following year. In 2015 she lost out to Taylor Swift - will she reclaim her crown come 24 February?

Neither Ariana Grande or Courtney Barnett have been nominated for a BRIT before. Australian singer-songwriter and guitarist Courtney Barnett is a relative newcomer, having released her debut album in March 2015 to widespread acclaim. Chart favourite Ariana Grande has previously collaborated with fellow BRITs 2016 nominees Jessie J and The Weeknd and has two albums that have charted in the UK Top 5.

 

The BRIT Awards 2016 take place at London’s O2 Arena on 24 February and will be broadcast live on ITV at 8pm GMT.

I hope she wins!

[Coney Island King 26,002]

omg yes please win! her most critically acclaimed era!

[graham4anything 2,859]

Cool.

[renaissance 8,329]

When/how do you vote?

[Thunder Revenant 20,943]

Would be great if she attends and wears something great ...

[Subversive 2,214]

Wait.. Maybe she will win this award (and attend & perform)

[SuperMegaStan 9,985]

i'm shocked that Taylor^TM isn't nominated.

 

how big are Ariana and M in the UK?

 

hope she will win that award and attend the show

[theeternalstars 4,576]

I've always preferred the BRITS over the Grammys because it seems that a lot of interesting artists are nominated each year (alongside the big pop powerhouses) like Courtney Barnett, Father John Misty, and Bjork this year.

 

That being said, Ariana Grande or Meghan Trainor better not win.

[Harpunn 399]

I do know it's a Lana fanbase forum, but regardless of that, I envision Bjork as the winner. Sure, Honeymoon was good, but Vulnicura was unprecedented last year.

[Amadeus 11,334]

Would be great if she attends and wears something great ...

 

she literally went from hollywood glamout to girl's scout leader within a year

[PARADIXO 32,940]

It's either her or Meghan.

 

how big are Ariana and M in the UK?

 

Ariana is kinda a flop there, but M is huge.

[theeternalstars 4,576]

Ariana is kinda a flop there, but M is huge.

Unfortunately.

[SilverSprings 534]

I think she has a good chance this year, but maybe that's just because I have discounted Ariana and Meghan as joke nominations    

[leaked_version 10,499]

Meghan is the new queen of pop, so she wins. lona can seethe

[Creyk 11,699]

Meghan is the new queen of pop, so she wins. lona can seethe

Here for it.

Meghan is amazing, no matter what music snobs say

For some reasons this makes me laugh so hard, it's such a good summary of Lana lmfao. Look at her face she's so satisfied of her look More seriously I really hope she wins, considering the smiling selfie she posted just after and the tweet + insta pic that Rob posted, I think it really means a lot to her. She deserves it so much but we all can agree on that

[Coney Island King 26,002]

if lana attends, adele will prob be there too.............will adele finally have her dream of meeting lana come to life? will we see a pic of the two of them hugging???? will i die???

[MermaidMotelle 279]

ALL THIS AND MORE ON THE NEXT EPISODE OF:

 

LANA DEL REY

[Tammy 2,291]

Ariana is kinda a flop there

Her European tour (incl. UK) was sold out! She played arenas, dear! She had #1 singles and both albums were at the top 10 UK album charts. I would not call this a flop...
