Adele took home Artist of the Year and Mastercard Album of the Year for her chart-topping album "30". Additionally, the singer was the winner of Song of the Year for her hit "Easy on Me". This marks Adele's third win for both album and song of the year as she previously won the categories back in 2012 for "21" and 2016 for "25".
With her new milestones, the "Hello" singer becomes the first solo artist in Brits history to win this award three times. She's also the second artist in Brits history, following Coldplay, to win the award with three consecutive studio albums.
