Olivia Dean ‘set to perform’ at this year’s Brit Awards ceremony after her hit No 1 album

Rising UK pop star Olivia Dean will take the stage at the Brit Awards, following a breakout year that saw her album reach number one.

At 26, the singer achieved a rare feat: she topped the UK charts with both a single (‘Man I Need’) and an album (‘The Art Of Loving’) in the same week. She’s the first female artist to do so since Adele in 2021.

She also became very popular in the United States, where her album stayed in the top ten of the Billboard 200 chart for eleven weeks.

Olivia was nominated for three awards last year and might perform at the 2026 ceremony in February.

According to a source, organizers of the Brit Awards are hoping to get Olivia involved in the show, as she’s considered one of the UK’s biggest stars.

Her recent album has been a huge success, and she’s become a major breakthrough artist. Many people predict she’ll be among the top winners at the awards ceremony.

Everyone anticipates she’ll be nominated for all the major awards, and a performance by her would be a huge bonus.

Daily Mail have contacted Olivia’s representatives for comment. 

The star began writing songs at the tender age of 16, and taught herself to play guitar and piano. 

Olivia trained at the Brit School, a renowned performing arts and technology institution, and has received a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist.

She first gained attention in 2018 with her debut single, “Reason To Stay,” and followed it up with two EPs released in 2019 and 2020.

In 2021, Amazon Music recognized her as an up-and-coming artist of the year. She also had a hit with her version of Nat King Cole’s “Christmas Song,” which reached number 19 on the UK singles chart.

In addition to her singing career, this artist is now working with Chanel as a brand ambassador, expanding into the fashion and beauty industries.

She’s the new face of Burberry’s Her fragrance, and will star in a campaign launching in 2026.

Olivia recently went public with her new relationship with drummer Eddie Burns.

People began speculating that she was dating the American musician, who plays drums for Clairo, after she started interacting with his photos on Instagram in April.

The couple first appeared together publicly in July at Wimbledon, where they were photographed holding hands and looking affectionate.

Just days after their performance, the couple joined Olivia and Clairo as supporting acts for Sabrina Carpenter’s concert in Hyde Park as part of the BST festival.

Olivia has been previously romantically linked to One Direction superstar Harry Styles, 31.

Rumors about the two started in August of last year when they were seen having burgers at Five Guys in London. This came just two months after Harry ended his relationship with Taylor Russell.
