Brit Awards 2023: Sam Ryder and Leigh-Anne Pinnock lead the glam at Warner Music’s star-studded after party
Sam Ryder, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jodie Turner-Smith were among the celebs who hit the capital for Warner Music’s Brit Awards after party.
No expense was spared celebrating the biggest night in music, which earlier had seen the label’s artists Ryder, Lizzo, David Guetta, and Ella Henderson perform at the glitzy ceremony at the London O2 Arena.
And, for the first time in the ceremony’s history was held on a Saturday.
The NoMad Hotel in London’s Covent Garden was completely transformed for the star-studded event which saw DJ sets from Sugababes, Jodie Harsh, Eliza Rose, and Mike Skinner well into the early hours.
Upon arriving, guests were greeted by the sight of a champagne tower and could enjoy specialty cocktails from Ciroc Vodka named after the DJs and performers at the awards and party, including Push The Button, Radical Remedy and Baddest of the Mule.
The NoMad dining menu was also served as canapes including their famous fried chicken, bacon wrapped hot dog with black truffle, wild mushroom tarlets with parmesan and caviar.
Despite missing out on the best new artist award, former UK Eurovision finalist Ryder was in high spirts as he happily posed for selfies.
Actress Turner-Smith and Emily In Paris star Lucian Laviscount were seen catching up animatedly on the stairs.
Little Mix singer Pinnock was still buzzing from being in the recording studio recently where she has been working on her debut solo music which she told the Standard would be coming “soon”.
Louise Redknapp told us she is looking forward to getting back on stage for some live dates this summer.
Jodie Harsh killed it with her DJ slot despite earlier in the evening admitting to “bricking it” over a request to deliver a RnB and hip hop flavoured set which isn’t usually her forté. She is also working on new music.
Meanwhile, former Love Island host Laura Whitmore and husband Iain Stirling had the babysitter in and were seen enjoying a “rare” date night together.
Other VIP guests included Clara Amfo, Myleene Klass, Billie Piper, Georgia May Jagger, Charli XCX, Salma Hayek, and Damian Hurley whose mane-like hair is gravity-defying up close.
Ahead of the bash, attendees were sent out a luxury goodie box including a stay at a five-star hotel suite, an array of high-end makeup and fragrances such as Charlotte Tilbury, Christian Louboutin and Dr Barbara Sturm, designer clothes and sunglasses, a facial, teeth whitening kit, and more.
