Gender neutrality in the nominations for the following Brit awards is a significant change of sorts.
Transgender, LGBTQ, or non-binary people have faced numerous and stupid discrimination around everything. It’s high time we give them the respect and equality they deserve and sideline the expected gender norms.
The TikTok voting is the basis of the new nominees for coming Brit awards. Interesting nominees and curious battles between some singers for winning take the highlight of this Brit awards.
Adding to this, the beloved singer Adele and Ed Shereen stand in the single line to battle for some of the most prestigious awards of the night, including, Best Album and Best British Act.
Nominees and battles
The usual categories of the best female and male singers have gone down with the new tradition of gender neutrality. This made Adele and Little Simz pitted against Ed Sheeran, Dave, and Sam Fender.
Clara Amfo and Maya Jama announced the shortlists for the categories last night, and 18 female artists were featured.
Adele, Little Simz, Ed Sheeran, and Dave lead the nominations with four each, followed by Sam Fender, Central Cee, and David Guetta on three apiece.
By mixing the best male and females into one exciting race, the organizers also introduced new categories.
There were to be for Best Pop/Rnb, Best Dance, Best Alternative/Rock, and Best Rap/Hip-Hop/Grime.
Learning from the past
The statement addressing gender neutrality stated
“celebrate artists solely for their music and work, rather than how they choose to identify or as others may see them.”
Removal of the gendered categories was expected to happen in 2019, as reported by, The Sun.
The organizers finally took the bold decision after non-binary singer Sam Smith felt excluded from May’s show.
He remarked on the event stating.
“Music for me has always been about unification, not division.
“Let’s celebrate everybody regardless of gender, race, age, ability, sexuality, and class.”
A record-breaking nomination of 18 women happened this year in Brit awards but was still vastly outnumbered by men with 48 nominations.
