Reason why there was a ‘horse’ sat next to Danny Dyer at the BRITs revealed

The former Eastenders actor wasn't the only stud at his table.

The biggest night in British music was being streamed live from London's O2 Arena on ITV1, with some of the biggest names in music in attendance.

The likes of Sabrina Carpenter, Sam Fender, Chappell Roan and Charli XCX all picked up awards in what was a celebration of pop stardom.

One person who seemed delighted to be in attendance was TV personality and actor Danny Dyer, who hit the red carpet alongside his two daughters - Sunnie-Jo and Dani.

The 47-year-old had the honour of presenting the award for International Song of the Year, but unfortunately for him, his night at the Brits will be remembered for having a mare at his table.

Literally.

When the cameras panned to Dyer's table, viewers at home must have thought they were hallucinating as the footage showed the actor sat next to what appeared to be a horse in a red dress.

Discussing the bizarre sight on X, one person wrote: "It’s highly likely Danny Dyer bringing a horse to the Brit awards won’t even make the top five of weirdest things to happen tonight."

Another said: "What on earth was sat next to Danny Dyer was it a horse??"

A third chimed in: "I thought I was tripping balls when I saw a HORSE sitting beside Danny Dyer."

Well, we now have an explanation for the strange sight.

The mystery person turned out to be German DJ and singer HorsegiirL, who conceals her identity behind a horse head mask.

The singer-songwriter attended the Brit Awards in a striking red dress for the special occasion. Her 2023 single My Barn My Rules became a massive hit after it gained popularity on TikTok.

She claims her full name is Stella Stallion, who is supposedly a horse 'from the animal world that grew up on Sunshine Farms'.

The anonymous musician also previously described herself as 'half-horse, half-human' to Vogue journalist Daniel Rodgers in November 2023.

Imagine being a fly-on-the-wall for the chats between HorsegiirL and the Football Factory star!
