'Unusual' Lewis Capaldi statue unveiled by pupils of former high school ahead of star's intimate gig at SWG3

Lewis Capaldi was left stunned after being presented with a statue of himself by pupil's from his former high school. The global superstar was surprised with the sculpture ahead of an intimate gig at Glasgow's SWG3 last night.

Pupils at St Kentigern’s Academy in Blackburn, West Lothian, were sworn to secrecy over the project, which was six months in the making. The statue was dedicated to the release of the 26-year-old's second album, 'Broken by Desire to Be Heavenly Sent', which was released shortly before his show on Sunday.

But there was a twist to the gift - with the sculpture deliberately not bearing a particularly striking resemblance to the Scots crooner.
