FKA Twigs, the up-and-coming singer and girlfriend of Robert Pattinson, has been nominated alongside the likes of Hozier and Sam Smith for a top music award – an Ivor Novello.

The 27-year-old, who is rumoured to be engaged to the former Twilight star, is in the running for Best Contemporary Song for a track she also co-wrote, Two Weeks.

Clean Bandit’s Rather Be, featuring Jess Glynne, and Alt-J song Every Other Freckle are also up for the award.

Presented by the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors (BASCA), the awards, which are marking their 60th anniversary, are highly prized because they are voted for by songwriters and composers.

BASCA chairman Simon Darlow said: “In their 60th year The Ivors nominations continue to reflect the health and diversity of British and Irish songwriting and composing.

“These awards were created to raise the profile of our best creative talent and today’s nominations, which include a host of fresh new writers, demonstrate that The Ivors continue to achieve this.”
