Occasional Digest - a story for you

BRITS fans were stunned as host Mo Gilligan got a major star’s name mixed up last night – while Harry Styles cleaned up with FOUR major awards.

Comedian Mo introduced Lewis Capaldi onto the stage during the Brit Awards ceremony as Sam – leaving fans outraged.

Meanwhile, Becky Hill, David Guetta, Aitch and Beyonce scooped major gongs on the night – with Harry Styles winning Best Album, Best Song, Best Artist and Best Pop/R’n’B Act.

While accepting the gong for best artist, he added: “I want to thank my family for being the most supportive, understanding, patient, loving family I could have ever asked for. I want to thank my mum for signing me up for The X Factor without telling me, so I literally wouldn’t be here without you.”

It comes as Brit Awards viewers have poked fun of Sam Smith’s outfit on social media with one saying: “It’s attention seeking and nothing else,” whilst others compared it to Billy Connolly’s incontinence pants sketch.
