A dedicated Beyoncé fan has spent thousands of pounds to see the superstar perform live, as the UK leg of her Renaissance World Tour kicks off in Cardiff last night (Wednesday May 17).
Taylor Sinclair, 26, travelled from her home in Belfast to Wales and camped overnight for the debut UK show at the Principality Stadium. She is due to catch the Single Ladies hitmaker live a further 12 times around Europe, having already seen her in Brussels, reports WalesOnline.
In total, Taylor has spent around £20,000 on concert tickets and travel costs - which she says was '100 percent worth it.' Taylor will be heading to Edinburgh, London, Sunderland, Paris, Amsterdam, Cologne, Frankfurt and Barcelona to see Beyoncé live.

Tickets ranged from £50 for reserved seated and went up to £170 for VIP, while general standing tickets were priced at £95. The singer is playing five dates in the UK; Cardiff tonight, Edinburgh on Saturday (May 20), Sunderland on Tuesday (May 23) and two shows in London on Monday 29 and Tuesday 30 May.
Talking about being in the queue for so long, Taylor said she was "a little bit tired now" and that it was "freezing" last night. She danced and sang with other Beyoncé fans who joined her in the queue during the night.
Speaking about what she was looking forward to at the Cardiff show, Taylor said: "Just to see any changes, new outfits, the show was amazing last time."
Taylor has visited Cardiff before, to see Beyoncé when she last performed in the city five years ago, and said the Principality Stadium was a "lovely stadium".
The Renaissance World Tour marks the first time Beyoncé has performed a solo tour in the UK in seven years. She brought her Formation World Tour to London, Manchester, Glasgow, Sunderland, Cardiff and Dublin, in support of her hit album Lemonade in 2016.
The singer toured again two years later, this time with husband Jay-Z on their co-headline On The Run II shows in Cardiff, Glasgow, Manchester and London.
