Based on what people are searching for in the UK on Google, the company have predicted the BRIT Award winners ahead of tonight's ceremony at the O2 Arena in London.

Just three of the top 10 most searched for artists are British names Google has found, meaning that international solo artists are coming out on top, but perhaps unexpectedly is Sia beating out Beyoncé for the Best International Female Artist category, despite still only coming second to first place Taylor Swift.

Sam Smith narrowly edges ahead of Ed Sheeran for the Best British Male crown, whilst One Direction and Foo Fighters are predicted to take home the Best British and International Group gongs respectively.

Ed Sheeran's 'Thinking Out Loud' is the most-searched for British Single, whilst Sam Smith looks the easy winner for Breakthrough Artist and Royal Blood should snatch up the Best Album.

Unsurprisingly, the UK and Ireland are the two countries that care most about the BRITs, but over the past year, details about the event has been searched for by people from Australia, Portugal, New Zealand, Canada, Norway and more.

The BRIT Awards take place tonight, live on ITV from 8pm.
