March 1st 2025.
The anticipation was palpable as the audience eagerly awaited the start of the Brit Awards. Fans were not disappointed when comedian Jack Whitehall took to the stage, ready to entertain the star-studded crowd for the fifth year in a row. With his signature cheeky humor, Jack wasted no time in poking fun at his fellow celebrities.
The opening of the ceremony was a nod to the popular TV show Squid Game, featuring well-known faces like Richard Madeley and Sam Thompson. The first performance of the night by Sabrina Carpenter set the tone for an exciting evening. Fans could follow along with the live blog on Metro as they brought the latest updates.
With a mischievous grin, Jack couldn't resist teasing the audience. "What a way to start the show!" he exclaimed before adding, "Yes, I'm back! ITV had so many presenters cancel this year that they had to come crawling back to an ex." A playful jab at the network that didn't go unnoticed.
True to form, Jack didn't hold back when it came to roasting the celebrities in attendance. "Five nominations for the lady who is not just a musician but a very strong gmail password...Charli XCX," he chuckled. The camera then panned to the nominated artist, who had made the most British move ever by asking not to perform so she could enjoy a few drinks. "Legend!" Jack praised.
But the comedian wasn't done yet. He moved on to Stormzy, calling him "the Grime scene's Ronald McDonald," before turning his attention to KSI. "His music is slightly past his prime," Jack quipped. "KSI judging talent, that's like Stephen Hawking judging Strictly," he teased, referring to KSI's new role on Britain's Got Talent.
Little did Jack know, he would be the one left blushing later in the show. Just like Kanye West and Bianca Censori at the Grammys last month, his parents made a surprise appearance on the red carpet during Teddy Swims' performance. "It worked for Kanye and his wife," his mom, Hilary, joked. "Yeah, maybe Yeezy can pull that look off, but if he wears sunglasses indoors, he just looks blind," Jack retorted, pointing to his bewildered father.
As he tried to move on to the next segment, his mother playfully threatened to whip off her coat just like Bianca did at the Grammys. "It's too hot," she said, causing Jack to shudder and warn, "Don't you dare, Hilary!" The audience loved the moment, with one viewer even saying, "I can't believe Jack Whitehall's parents recreated the Kanye and wife Grammy incident."
Although Jack may not have expected this, he had earlier teased which celebrities he would be taking aim at. "I know Sam Fender and Jade will be up for it," he revealed. "They're always up for a laugh and don't take themselves too seriously. Charli XCX is great too, and she's the big story of the year. I'll throw in some Brat jokes." With a promise of iconic moments, fans were in for a treat.
The Brit Awards aired on ITV that night, and it was a night to remember. Fans couldn't get enough of Jack's witty humor and his parents' hilarious parody of Kanye and Bianca. If you have a celebrity story, video, or pictures, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We would love to hear from you.
