I got to meet my idol and favourite singer-Olly Murs.

Rushing to the stage door at Nottingham Arena with hours to go, I bagged myself a spot at the front of the barrier and waited him to come out.

Me and WILL.I.AM

It was May 2019 and I had dragged my mum, Elizabeth, 57, along with me, but I secretly thought she was just as excited!

'I think he's coming!' I squealed to her.

And, bursting out the door with his usual cheeky grin, there he was, just metres in front of me.

'Can I get a picture, Olly?' I shouted excitedly. 'I've got something to give you!'

 'Of course,' he said, coming over and posing for the camera.

I was part of a community of fans online and had a book of fan messages to give to him.

Meeting Les Dennis was surreal!
