Just because we’re still in lockdown (sort of!) it doesn’t mean that we can’t take the time to celebrate the country’s biggest talent. That’s exactly what took place on Wednesday night as the who’s whos of the media industry gathered both physically and virtually to celebrate the 2020 Feather Awards.
The tongue-in-cheek ceremony is usually a calendar highlight and celebrates everything from style, to natural looks and even drama and beefs. The ceremony has also gone down in history as a celebration of the LGTBQI+ community and their profound impact on the arts and entertainment industry – and this year was no different.
Although the winners list threw up a few surprises; for the most part, it was hard to argue with this year’s Feather Awards winners. Take a look at the full list below:
