From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Adele is among the artists booked to perform at this year’s Brit Awards ceremony.

The annual music awards show is being hosted once again at the O2 Arena in London, on Tuesday 8 February.

Adele announced she was performing at the Brits in a post to social media, in which she also revealed she would be interviewed on The Graham Norton Show this Friday (4 February).

Other artists scheduled for Brits performances include Dave, Ed Sheeran, Holly Humberstone, Little Simz and Liam Gallagher. Doja Cat was booked but was forced to pull out after members of her team contracted Covid.

Adele’s Brits appearance will be her first performance since her One Night Only TV special last year.

She also starred in the pre-recorded special An Audience with Adele, which was attended by fellow celebrities including Stormzy and Emma Watson, on ITV. She was due to embark upon her Las Vegas residency last month, but was forced to postpone the shows, blaming delivery delays and Covid.

The way in which Adele announced her Brits performance angered some fans, many of whom are still waiting to learn whether the British singer will reschedule her Las Vegas residency – or offer refunds for those who cannot afford to book new flights and hotels.

Adele is up for four awards this year: MasterCard Album of the Year (30), Artist of the Year, Song of the Year (“Easy on Me”), and Best Pop/R&B Act.

The Brits ceremony, which begins at 8pm, will be streamed live on YouTube for international audiences and broadcast in the UK on ITV.
