Harry Styles addressed the controversy at the Brit Awards.
Though Styles had noted earlier in his speech,"It's obviously so important for us to remember that there is no such thing as ‘best’ in music,” the line he ended on—"This doesn't happen to people like me very often"—felt particularly tone-deaf given the context: Beyoncé, whose albumwas expected to win in that category, had lost, after losing in previous years to white artists including Beck, Adele, and Taylor Swift.
“'this doesn’t happen to people like me very often” IT LITERALLY ONLY HAPPENS TO PEOPLE LIKE YOU????" tweeted @ungodlywests following Styles' speech. A week later, at the BRIT Awards, Styles won in four categories, including best album, best artist, and best song of the year. Speaking in his acceptance speech for the best artist BRIT Award, Styles seemed to address the controversy his acceptance speech the previous week had sparked, saying:"I'm really, really grateful for this, and I'm very aware of my privilege up here tonight, so this award is for Rina, Charli, Florence, Mabel, and Becky.
He also thanked his former One Direction bandmates:"I want to thank Niall, Louis, Liam, and Zayn because I wouldn't be here without you either."
