Australia’s wildest awards show is sensationally AXED: ‘This was not an easy decision…’
The Australian radio community is reeling from the announcement that this year’s Australian Commercial Radio Awards (ACRAs) have been…
Lewis Capaldi attended his first event in seven months as he enjoyed a beer at Gucci’s Grammys after-party at the iconic Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood on Sunday night.
The Scottish singer, 27, cut a casual figure in a black sweatshirt and jeans after skipping the main show at the Crypto.com Arena.
The Someone You Loved hitmaker held up a peace sign as he posed up a storm at the star-studded event.
During the Grammy Awards, Lewis was up for Best Music in a Film for his single, How I’m Feeling Now, but missed out on the gong to David Bowie’s Moonage Daydream.
It is the first time in seven months that Lewis has attended an industry event, the last being the penultimate day of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships in July 2023.

Selena Gomez and her boyfriend Benny Blanco, Dua Lipa and her new boyfriend Callum Turner, Demi Lovato, and Ed Sheeran also attended the star-studded soiree.
Lewis recently delighted fans by releasing five new songs for the New Year, despite his career break to focus on his anxiety and battle with Tourette’s syndrome.
The singer returned to social media for the first time in six months to announce that he was releasing an extended edition of his second album Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent.
The tracks are called Strangers, A Cure For Minds Unwell, Someone I Could Die For, The Ancient Art Of Always F***ing Up and Old Navy Blue.
Lewis announced he would be taking a break away from the spotlight for his mental health after performing at Glastonbury in June 2023.
Lewis explained: ‘After some back-and-forth about whether it was the right thing to do, I’ve decided it would be a shame for these extra five songs, which are so incredibly special to me, to sit on my hard drive, never to see the light of day.’
The album originally hit number one in the UK charts after its May 2023 release, staying there for two consecutive weeks.
Lewis added on X: ‘I was absolutely terrified of disappointing you all, afraid of not living up to expectations and, in all honesty, scared that the whole thing would be a complete flop. But thanks to all of you, it wasn’t.
The Someone You Loved hitmaker held up a peace sign as he posed up a storm at the star-studded event
‘It’s mind-blowing to see the songs on this album still resonating with so many of you despite the fact I’ve not been out there promoting it or touring, it means the world to me.
‘Which brings me to the reason for this big b*****d of a letter I’m writing . . . ‘Prior to my decision to f*** off for a bit, I’d always hoped to release an extended version at some point!’
The hitmaker also issued an update on his mental health journey in the post, saying his time off has been ‘going great’ and that he has noticed a ‘marked improvement’ in both his Tourette’s and anxiety.
Tourette’s syndrome is a neurological condition characterised by a combination of involuntary noises and movements called tics.
These symptoms impacted Lewis’ Glastonbury 2023 performance as crowds helped the tearful performer through his song Someone You Loved.
However, he clarified that now would not be the time for his return from time off, saying: ‘For now I’m going to continue taking some time to carry on looking after myself, maybe writing some music and taking a moment to reflect on some of the most incredible years of my life.
‘I want to make absolutely sure I’m 100 per cent before getting back out there again properly for more shows and doing what I love more than anything.
‘Hope this tides you all over until we can get in a room and sing them together some day very soon.’
