Little Mix and The 1975 were among the big winners at this year's BRIT Awards.

The girl group won the prize for Best Single - as voted for by the public -while The 1975 won Best Group.

Two gongs were also awarded to David Bowie, for Best Male and Best Album, for his final record Blackstar. Bowie's son Duncan Jones, who picked up the award, said: “I lost my dad last year but I also became a dad. I was spending a lot of time, after getting over the shock, trying to work out what I would want my son to know about his grandad.

“It would be the thing that most of his fans have taken over the last 50 years. He’s always been there supporting people who think they are a little bit weird or a little bit strange, a little bit different. He’s always been there for them.
"This award is for all the kooks, and all the people that make the kooks."

It's a shame that best single and best video categories were voted for by the public, David Bowie's "Lazarus" should have won both.

I thought that as well, but apparently it's because he was born in Northampton.

Shout Out To My Ex won British Single? Yeah, use your ex-boyfriend's name for cheap publicity to win awards, that's the spirit as BMTH once said
