Florence + The Machine stopped their headline show at Leeds First Direct Arena after a fan fainted in the audience.
Midway through the band’s Saturday evening show at the Leeds city centre venue the audience alerted security to someone being in distress with the person being lifted out of the crowd at the front of the stage. Lead singer Florence Welch, 36, spotted what happened and stopped the performance.
During the brief pause, Florence told concerned audience members: “Someone has fainted but I think they are okay.” She then went on to praise those at Leeds First Direct Arena for acting so swiftly.
