Ed Sheeran Belfast: Girl, 7, sings along word perfect to her favourite song at gig

It's fair to say there were probably a few people declaring themselves Ed Sheeran's biggest fan when he played Belfast this week.

But seven-year-old Amirah Stewart-Altay could give them all a run for their money as she was filmed singing along word perfect to the singer-songwriter at Boucher Road playing fields on Thursday night.

Mum Jennifer said her daughter's excitement for the gig was "unreal" and after a bit of panic at the gate over tickets issues, they got as close as they could to the stage.

The mum from South Belfast said: "She absolutely loves Ed Sheeran and asked for tickets from Santa, she's never been to an outside concert and I wasn't sure how she would be with the rain, but she danced and sung her we heart out the whole night.

"She was waiting all night on her favourite song, that's Bad Habits.

"She had the time of her wee life and made memories that will last a life time."
