The Brit Award for International Song is an award given by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), an organisation which represents record companies and artists in the United Kingdom.[1] The accolade is presented at the Brit Awards, an annual celebration of British and international music.[2] The winners and nominees are determined by the Brit Awards voting academy with over one thousand members, which comprise record labels, publishers, managers, agents, media, and previous winners and nominees.[3] The inaugural winner of the category was Olivia Rodrigo, and the current recipient is Miley Cyrus.
History
The category was introduced in 2022 following a restructuring which resulted in the removal of gendered categories.[4] It is the first award to recognise individual songs by international artists and only the second category, following the Brit Award for International Album (1977, 2002-2011), to honor the work of international artists rather than the artists themselves.
