Sam Smith & Kim Petras Nail 'Unholy' Performance at BRIT Awards 2023 After Courting Outrage & Conservative Christian Panic at Grammys

Sam Smith and Kim Petras hopped onstage to belt out their international hit “Unholy” at the 2023 BRIT Awards after courting controversy for their performance of the song at the 2023 Grammys.

The collaborators drew outrage from some conservative politicians and Christian social media stars earlier this month due to the Satan-themed performance, which saw Kim sing in a cage and Sam wearing a hat with devil horns.

Clearly, they were unbothered by the criticisms, as they fearlessly took the stage at the new awards show.

They switched up the staging, opting for a more industrial set that featured multiple cars and a literal body shop. However, the number featured plenty of titillating elements.

Sam donned a similar hat with horns and worked their way through some sexy choreography. The number ended as the camera zoomed in on two of the dancers kissing on top of a car.

The duo were nominated for Song of the Year at the show, but the award went to Harry Styles. Speaking of, Harry‘s acceptance speeches during the show grabbed headlines.
