Last Saturday's Brit Awards ceremony on ITV resulted in 825 complaints, with the majority relating to Sabrina Carpenter's opening performance and five-time winner Charli XCX's outfit, the UK media watchdog Ofcom has said.
US pop star Carpenter opened the awards show at The O2 in London on Saturday evening with a rendition of her hit Espresso, wearing a red, military-style blazer dress paired with stockings and suspenders.
Carpenter then transformed into a red sparkly bra and shorts set to perform her song Bed Chem on a large bed.
She was supported by a host of backing dancers who joined her during the pre-9pm watershed performance.
Carpenter received the Global Success Award at the ceremony and was also nominated in the International Artist and International Song of the Year categories.
The big winner of the night, Charli XCX, wore a black, see-through dress.
The singer addressed the concerns during her acceptance speech for Artist of the Year, saying: "I heard that ITV were complaining about my nipples. I feel like we're in the era of 'free the nipple' though, right?"
Charli XCX dominated at the awards show, winning in five categories including the coveted Album of the Year for her culture-shaping record Brat.
The British star also won Dance Act, Song of the Year for Guess featuring Billie Eilish, and Songwriter of the Year.
The 32-year-old has had an impressive 12 months that saw the infectious electronic-pop tracks on Brat soar up the charts and inspire a trend, with fans embracing the "brat summer" cultural movement of self-love, positive body image, and sultry style choices.
