Beyoncé to perform at BRIT Awards


Beyoncé is set to perform at this year’s BRIT Awards.

The ‘Drunk in Love’ hitmaker will grace the stage at the ceremony for the first time in ten years, joining Katy Perry, Pharrell Williams, Arctic Monkeys and Ellie Goulding.

The 32-year-old singer was due to perform at the annual ceremony in 2013 but had to cancel because her new material wasn’t ready but is reportedly on board for the event this month.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "Beyonce is on. The only reason this has not yet been announced officially is because the Brits guys are nervous that it could all go wrong again.

"But what I can tell you is that in her camp it’s 99.9 per cent on."

The star will also join Lorde, Disclosure, Rudimental, Bastille and Bruno Mars on February 19 at London’s O2 Arena and organisers are hoping the show will be viewed by over 10 million people.

It has already been a successful year for the ‘Single Ladies’ hitmaker, who shocked fans by releasing her self-titled fifth studio album without any prior promotion.

The record, which was released exclusively on iTunes, conquered the charts and sold 828,773 copies in just three days.

Beyoncé stole the show at the Grammy Awards last month performing a sexy routine with rapper husband Jay Z.

The last time the singer took to the stage at the BRIT Awards in 2004 she sang her hit song ‘Crazy in Love’ and also picked up the accolade for Best International Female.
