Beloved Grammy-nominated popstar 'asked to perform at the BRIT Awards' after phenomenal year

A beloved Grammy-nominated popstar has reportedly been asked to perform at the BRIT Awards for the first time after a 'phenomenal year'.

The event, scheduled for March 1 at London's iconic O2 Arena, is shaping up to celebrate a year dominated by standout female artists.

And it will not disappoint if bosses manage to bag Sabrina Carpenter for a performance, ahead of her upcoming UK tour.

The Espresso hitmaker, 25, took the world by storm in 2024 as she spent 21 weeks at the top of the singles chart, earned a whopping six Grammy nominations, and released her latest album Short n Sweet.

The superstar also broke the record in the UK charts by becoming the youngest female artist to hold the No1 and No2 spot in the same week. 

And now, she's reportedly in talks with BRITs bosses, who want to make her performance debut at the awards ceremony happen.

A source told The Sun: 'The Brit Awards is all about celebrating incredible musicians and Sabrina dominated 2024.

'They are in advanced negotiations to get her on stage at the show on March 1 and are pulling out all the stops to make sure it can happen.'

They added: 'She is a musician the Brits want to champion and they know that her performance would be a real ratings winner with all the viewers watching the ceremony at home on ITV.' 

MailOnline has contacted representatives for Sabrina for comment. 

It comes after the news that another huge US sensation is reportedly close to signing a deal to perform at the 2025 Brit Awards, in what could be one of the night's most memorable moments. 

Chappell Roan - whose real name is Kayleigh Rose Amstutz - shot to fame with her hit album The Rise And Fall of a Midwest Princess.

In the last year she has become a trailblazer in the music industry and it is thought organisers are keen for her to take the stage and deliver a medley of fan-favourite tracks, including Hot To Go, Pink Pony Club, and her latest single Good Luck, Babe.

A source told The Sun: 'It has been such an amazing year for female musicians and the Brit Awards want to celebrate that.

'Chappell became such a key figure in music in 2024 that organisers have been pushing the boat out to secure a performance.

'She is known for putting on incredible performances so having a major American star like her on the stage would be a real coup.

The source added that things were looking good and contracts were hoping to be signed 'in the next few weeks.'

MailOnline has contacted a Brits representative for comment. 

The performance would mark Chappel's return to the UK following her sold-out tour last September, which saw her play to packed venues across the country. 

Her unique style and raw talent have positioned her as one of music's freshest voices, with fans and critics eager to see her shine on one of the industry's biggest nights.

Nominations for the 2025 Brit Awards are expected to be revealed later this month, and Chappel Roan is tipped as a strong contender for categories such as International Artist and International Song.

This year's awards will once again air live on ITV1 and take place on a Saturday night, offering fans a prime-time spectacle. 

Tickets for the event are already on sale, with the full line-up yet to be announced.

It comes after the singer opened up about how 'hard' it was working at a drive-thru coffee shop during the COVID pandemic. 

The Grammy nominated singer, who catapulted to fame last year when she opened for Olivia Rodrigo's Guts World Tour in the US and Canada worked a regular job just like everyone else back in 2020.  

During a recent video interview with Canadian journalist Nardwuar at Sonido Del Valle record store in Los Angeles, Chappell reminisced about her pre-fame life.

When Nardwuar said the words 'Scooters Coffee' to her, Chappell - who recently sang a duet with Sabrina Carpenter - simply replied: 'Angels,' with a smile on her face.

Sharing more information about her former job, the 26-year-old told him: 'It was a drive-thru, you know. Wore the headset. It was awesome. I had a great time.'

She continued: 'It was during the pandemic. I look back at that time, and I'm like... that was f***ing hard, that was hard. 

'It's fun if you're with your friends. It's really hard either way, but it's not fun if you're not with your friends, if you're not with people you like to work with.'

She then admitted: 'But the hardest thing is being on headset and having someone at the window, and you taking an order, typing it in, and giving them the correct change, at the same time.

'So you're talking to two or three different people at the same time, and you're making drinks!' Chappell added.

Last year, the Pink Pony Club singer revealed that she had 'pumped the brakes' on fame following her rapid rise to stardom.

Speaking on a July episode of The Comment Section podcast, she told host Drew Afualo: 'People have started to be freaks, like, [they] follow me and know where my parents live, and where my sister works. All this weird s**t.'

Chappell - who grew up in a strict Christian household - explained that she had made a promise to herself that she would stop making music if fans gave her 'stalker vibes' or made her family feel as if they were in any 'danger.' 

'And we're there, we're there,' she stated. 'So, I'm just kind of in this battle, I've like pumped the brakes on honestly anything to make me more known. 

'It's kind of a forest fire right now. I'm not trying to go do a bunch of s**t,' Chappell added. 

However, she also opened up about the positive side of fame, such as being recognized by stars who she has admired for years.

'People who I've looked up to my entire life are like peers, which is sick,' she said.

'Miley [Cyrus] invited me to a party, and I was like, 'You don't know that you were my first concert when the Jonas Brothers were opening for you.''
