Ed Sheeran may have been overlooked in the major categories at the Grammy Awards, but he’s made up for it at the Brit Awards – the British equivalent of the Grammys – with four nominations, including British Album of the Year.
In addition to the Album of the Year nod for Divide, Ed’s also up for British Male Solo Artist, as well as British Single and British Artist Video for “Shape of You.” At the Grammys, Ed only received two nods: Best Pop Solo Performance and Best Pop Vocal Album.
On Instagram, Ed wrote, “Thanks for all my Brit award nominations, and well done to all the other nominees. All very exciting, see you at the ceremony.”
Only one other artist received more nominations than Ed: Dua Lipa who had five. She’s up for British Female, British Breakthrough, British Single, British Artist Video and the British Album for her self-titled debut album, which spun off four hits in the U.K. including “New Rules,” which reached No 1. That’s the most nods ever for a U.K. female solo artist.
