Adele takes a swipe at new gender neutral categories
Last night, Adele declared “I love being a woman” as she scooped a new gender neutral Brit Award.
The singer, 33, was crowned Artist of the Year – the first time male and female artists have battled it out for one prize.
As she took to the podium to pick up her gong, the star appeared to take swipe at the event’s new gender neutral categories as she declared ‘I love being a female artist’.
She said: “I really wasn’t expecting this one at all. I want to say a massive congratulations to Little Sims. Dave, Ed, Sam, I’m so proud to be in your company.
“I love being an artist. I can’t believe its my job. England, the UK, we have so many incredible young artists coming up.
“I understand why this has changed, but I really love being a woman and a female artist. I’m really proud of us.”
