Este From Haim Making Sex Hands At The BRIT Awards Is The Best Thing You’ll See Today
God bless you, Este Haim.
Last night, the who’s-who and who’s-that of the British music industry gathered in London for the annual BRIT Awards.
Grime artist Stormzy and pop upstart Dua Lipa emerged as the big winners of the night, with Stormzy taking home the awards for Album of the Year and Best Male Artist, and Dua Lipa picking up trophies for Best Female Artist and Breakthrough Act.
But the real MVP of the night was Haim bassist and vocalist Este Haim, who perfectly photobombed an awkward interview between One Direction’s Liam Payne and his girlfriend Cheryl Cole. See below:
Was it just me or anyone else only focus on the girl behind Cheryl and Liam?! ? #BRITs pic.twitter.com/CxUPzd7ZS4

Predictably, her trolling didn’t go unnoticed by the millions of viewers.
Este Haim trolling in the background during Cheryl and Liam’s ‘segment’ was the #Brits moment we truly deserved

I wish for as much confidence as Este Haim making “call me” signs & touching up her lippy behind Liam and Cheryl #BRITs

Not everyone immediately clicked as to who Este was, and some initial reports of the gaffe instead just naming her the ‘Drunk Woman‘.
She took the assessment well:
Given that Este is best-known for pulling semi-crazed facial expressions while on stage — affectionately known as her Bass Face — this BRITs bomb was actually pretty tame.
Let’s also just take a moment to appreciate that Este’s Twitter handle is “Jizzie Maguire”. God bless you, Este Haim.
