A 19-year-old fan was selected to dance onstage with Swedish pop star Zara Larsson at her RAC Arena concert in Perth.

Bailee Nathan, 19, was selected to dance onstage with Swedish pop star Zara Larsson during a performance of Lush Life at RAC Arena in Perth. Nathan camped outside the venue with friends overnight to position herself as close as possible to the front of the stage, hoping to be chosen for the honour.

Larsson's concerts feature a moment when a fan is selected to be her 'Lush Girl' and dance with her onstage. When the dancers were choosing participants, Nathan said she and her friends 'were just all going crazy'. When Larsson looked at her, Nathan recalled: 'I nearly burst into tears. She's so cool, and she's just really awesome.'

Nathan described the experience as 'honestly insane' and said meeting and dancing with her musical idol was 'the best thing that's ever going to happen to me'. She added: 'I literally, like, blacked out, but then I hugged her and I was so happy. It literally does not feel real.'
