Norwegian singer Sigrid is set to meet a teenage fan who was overcome with emotion during her Glastonbury set after launching a social media appeal to find her.

The 13-year-old fan, now identified as Nina, was filmed in tears as she sang along to all the words during Sigrid's set on Saturday.

Nina, who sat on her dad Adam's shoulders in front of the Other Stage and cried again after being given a set list by security staff, was called the "biggest legend of them all" by Sigrid.

Appealing for help finding the young fan, she wrote on Twitter: "The biggest legend of them all. I didn't get to meet you, but you were ON FIRE throughout the whole show, thank you so much.

"I think you inspired everyone to sing along and you definitely made us very happy. And your dad! What a cool dad!

"Can we find out who this girl is?"

After her first tweet garnered hundreds of shares and likes, Sigrid updated her followers shortly after, saying: "We found her! Thank you all for helping out.

"Her name is Nina and her dad is Adam. We're going to meet up at Latitude Festival, I am so excited."

She added: "PS: What a legend that security is for giving Nina my set list."

Replying to the appeal, Nina's father wrote on Twitter: "Nina had such an amazing time and can't tell you how happy she is that Sigrid noticed her and wanted to meet up."
