The Brit Awards 2024 were filled with many memorable moments this year as the stars returned to the 02 Arena for the biggest night in music.
Raye was the big winner on the night, scooping six gongs as she made an emotional appearance on stage.
This year’s ceremony was hosted by Clara Amfo, Maya Jama and Roman Kemp who took the helm on the big night.
There were plenty of big moments including Roman’s savage dig at Christian Horner, Raye’s appearance on stage with her grandma and Kylie Minogue’s hilarious ‘shoey’ drinking moment.
Here takes a look at all the viral moment from the Brit Awards 2024:

Roman Kemp made a dig at the Christian Horner scandal which is currently dominating the headlines, during the BRIT Awards on Saturday night.
The Capital Radio host was part of the presenting team, alongside Maya Jama and Clara Amfo, for the star-studded ceremony at London’s O2 which was broadcast on ITV.
Roman made a cheeky quip about Red Bull boss Christian during the live show, which took place just hours after Horner put on a united front at the Bahrain Grand Prix with his wife Geri Halliwell.
Whilst milling around the guests at the ceremony, Roman quipped: ‘It’s busier here than at team Red Bull’s press office.’
It comes amid allegations relating to the leak of hundreds of WhatsApp messages which appeared to be written by Horner to a female colleague.

The messages came on Thursday, just 24 hours after Horner was cleared to continue as Red Bull head following an internal probe into ‘inappropriate behaviour’ by the F1 team’s parent company, Red Bull GmbH.
Horner, who has always denied the claims, said previously: ‘I have the support of an incredible family, an incredible wife, an incredible team and everybody within that team.
‘And my focus is going on racing, winning racing and doing the best I can. It was a day about starting the season in he best possible way. My focus is on this team, my family, my wife and racing.’
Emotional Raye brings her grandmother up on stage
Raye called her grandmother Agatha Dawson to the stage with her as she collected Album Of The Year at the Brits on Saturday – and viewers at home were left in tears.
Looking at her grandmother, the singer, 26, said through tears: ‘I want to thank my grandma for her prayers. My grandma is awake until 3AM praying for me and my beautiful sisters. I love you so much.’
Raye, who wore a stunning white gown, then looked to the audience and revealed: ‘My middle name is Agatha and this Agatha Dawson, ladies and gentlemen.’
She stood back and allowed Agatha, who looked beautiful in traditional Ghanaian kente cloth, to bask in the rapturous applause that filled all corners of the O2.

Raye won a massive six Brits on Saturday night – the most any artist has won at once – and she celebrated in her bedroom slippers
The Escapism singer continued: ‘I’m so sorry, I want to thank all of the writers. I’m ugly crying on national television. I love music. All I wanted to be was an artist and now I’m an artist with an Album of the Year. Thank you so much, come on grandma, let’s go.’
Emotional fans took to X, formerly Twitter, and said: ‘Not me sitting here crying for raye no one deserves it more than her!!! and shoutout to grandma in the kente!!!’
‘Me telling my grandkids about Raye bringing her grandmother Agatha onto the #BritAwards stage to accept album of the year: [GIF of a man saying ‘pretty amazing’].’
‘Raye bringing her grandma up on stage for her album of the year win and then full on crying has me emotional.’
Roman Kemp ‘insults’ Green Day while hosting
Viewers were left less than impressed by another Roman quip on Saturday night.
The presenter called Green Day ‘the America Busted’ igniting the fury of fans of the hugely successful US band.
Tré Cool and Billie Joe Armstrong of the American pop punk band attended the award ceremony to present the Best British Group award, with Roman introducing them.
‘To present our next award for British group are two genuine rock gods,’ he said.
‘They have sold over 75 million records and released 14 albums – they are very much the American Busted. Please welcome from Green Day, Billie Joe Armstrong and Tré Cool.’

Viewers were less than impressed with the joke
Viewers weren’t impressed with the joke, with one tweeting: ‘I think Green Day being called ‘the American Busted’ might be the most insulting thing I’ve ever heard. Ever. #BritAwards.’
Another asked: ‘Did he just call Green Day the American Busted #BritAwards.’
Kylie Minogue does a ‘shoey’ on national TV
She spends most of her time living in the UK, but Kylie Minogue proved she still calls home during the 2024 Brit Awards on Saturday night.
The 55-year-old music icon, who won the BRITs’ Global Icon award, stunned fans by agreeing to participate in the Aussie ritual of drinking alcohol out of a shoe during the awards ceremony in London.
Host Roman Kemp convinced Kylie to drink her signature rosé wine from her high heels during an interview with the pop star at her table, saying it would be ‘amiss’ for the pair to not ‘go with an Aussie tradition’.
‘So will Kylie Minogue do a shoey with me at the Brits? If I ask for your shoe, can I do that?’ Kemp, asked.
Elsewhere during the chaotic ceremony, Roman convinced Global Icon award winner Kylie Minogue to do a ‘shoey’ – an Aussie tradition which involves drinking out of a shoe
Kylie seemed baffled by the skit, with one viewer tweeting: ‘That interview with Kylie and Roman Kemp was so awkward’
Kylie appeared hesitant at first, asking the crowd: ‘Do I do this?’ before Kemp held out a pair of black stilettos and filled them with alcohol.
Proving she’s a good sport, the All The Lovers hitmaker clinked stilettos with the host and drank the entire shoe in one gulp.
Later in the evening, Kylie closed the show with an energetic medley of her most famous hits with viewers rightly branding her a ‘legend’ after she last performed at the ceremony in 2008.
She looked sensational as she flaunted her age-defying figure in a skimpy white bodysuit which boasted sheer panels.
Falsely accused sub-postmistress hits out on stage
A former sub-postmistress, who was wrongly accused of stealing £36,000 during the Post Office Horizon scandal, took to the stage at the BRIT Awards on Saturday to accuse the government of lying about paying back postmasters.
Jo Hamilton, whose shocking story was told in ITV’s Mr Bates vs The Post Office, presented the first award on the biggest night in British music.
The wronged subpostmistress was joined onstage by Monica Dolan, the actress who played her character in the hit drama which delved into the scandal.
The 66-year-old told the large crowd at London’s O2 Arena: ‘I want to thank everyone in the country for the love and the support they have given the postmasters.
‘Please can you keep on supporting us because, despite what the Government says, they’re not paying the postmasters.’

The audience, who loudly cheered the mother-of-two as she started speaking, then booed after they heard her claims about the Government’s reluctance to remunerate victims of the scandal.
has contacted the Department of Business and Trade for comment.
Mrs Hamilton was falsely accused of taking the money from the Post Office branch she ran in South Warnborough, Hampshire.
She eventually pleaded guilty to false accounting in fear of going to jail and was prosecuted in 2006.
The subpostmistress and her husband were forced to remortgage their house twice, borrow money from friends and take £6,000 in donations from the village in order to pay back what was lost.
Calvin Harris ‘drinks Harry Styles’ bathwater’ in Saltburn reference
Roman Kemp made Calvin Harris drink a ‘bottle of Harry Styles’ bath water’ in one funny moment.
In a reference to the film Saltburn Roman sat with DJ Calvin and his wife Vick Hope at their table where he said he wanted to do some shots with him.
He said it was a ‘non alcoholic’ drink and didn’t give anymore details until after when he brought out a bottle labelled ‘Harry Styles’ bath water’.
Roman said: ‘I know, it is alcohol free, it is at one with the body. I have a mocktail for you. Are you ready for this one?’
They both downed the shots, then Roman quipped: ‘It is a little be salty.’

He then picked up the bottle and held it up to the camera.
Roman told Calvin: ‘I call it the Saltburn. It is a special brew.’
Roman said ahead of hosting the show: ‘This is a real pinch me moment! Hosting the BRIT Awards – what an honour.
‘I remember watching the BRITs on TV when I was growing up so to be asked to host this year’s awards, is a dream come true.
‘It’s going to be a privilege to share the stage with so many talented artists and to celebrate the incredible achievements of all the nominees and winners this year. See you there.’
