Sombr Confuses Brit Awards Viewers With Stage Invasion Fake-Out
After a jam-packed night of amazing performances and surprise guests, Sombr had a unique way of grabbing Brit Awards viewers’ attention during this year’s ceremony.
On Saturday evening, the Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter was the penultimate performer at the Brits, kicking things off with a rendition of his hit Undressed.
Halfway through the performance, viewers were shocked when there appeared to be a scuffle between Sombr and an apparent stage invader, who pushed him from the podium he’d been singing on.
At that point, the man in question ripped down a gold shimmer curtain, as Sombr launched into the second of his two songs, Back To Friends.
Many subsequently rushed to social media to check what had actually transpired, and see whether or not the stage invasion was genuine.
However, it’s been pointed out that the supposed stage invader was wearing a t-shirt, emblazoned with the message “Sombr is a homewrecker”, in a nod to the American performer’s upcoming single of the same name.
While Rosé and Bruno Mars’ collaboration Apt. picked up the latter award, the former went to Rosalía, beating stiff competition from the likes of Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Doechii, Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter and Bad Bunny.
