Doja Cat no longer able to perform at next week's BRIT Awards

01 February 2022 - Press release

The BRIT Awards with Mastercard have confirmed that global superstar Doja Cat will not be performing at next week's ceremony as planned.

In a statement, the US singer said:
"Unfortunately due to cases of COVID within my crew, I will no longer be performing at the BRITs. My team and I have been in rehearsals for weeks and despite taking the utmost caution, numerous members of my crew (both on and off stage) have tested positive for COVID. It's simply not safe for us to continue to rehearse together and put each other in harm's way. I can't wait to perform for my UK fans as soon as I can. Take care of yourselves."

On Monday, The BRITs confirmed that Sam Fender will be performing on the show, along with Dave, Ed Sheeran, Holly Humberstone, Liam Gallagher and Little Simz.

The BRIT Awards 2022 with Mastercard takes place Tuesday 8th February at The O2 arena, broadcast exclusively on ITV and ITV Hub.
