Myles Smith said: \u201cWinning the BRIT award for Rising Star is such a surreal moment. Music has always been about connecting with people, and to see it resonate on this level is incredible. I\u2019m so grateful to my team, my family, and especially the fans who\u2019ve supported me every step of the way. Your belief in me means everything.
