Speaking on the red carpet, the British singer-songwriter said she was “so nervous” to be performing at the ceremony at London’s O2 Arena.

Griff said: “In my hotel room, some flowers arrived and the note said something along the lines of, ‘Good luck with your performance, hope I get to say hi. Love from your friend Taylor’.
“And I’m thinking, ‘I don’t think know any other Taylor…’”
She added it will be “really awkward if it’s not her and I have told everyone that Taylor sent me flowers”.
Swift has been awarded the global icon Brit Award, becoming the first female artist to win the prize.
Griff was previously revealed as the winner of this year’s rising star award.
Musician and It’s A Sin star Olly Alexander also discussed his performance with Sir Elton John, which will air during the ceremony.
