Zara Larsson says meeting her boyfriend’s parents was more nerve-wracking than a gig

Ahead of her performance in May, Zara has spoken out about performing in the city to perform - and revealed that she knows Birmingham pretty well as her BOYFRIEND is from there! Who'd have thought it!

Zara revealed that she has some "good memories" of Birmingham and is "super excited" to perform there on 4th May - even adding that her boyfriend, model Brian H Whittaker, is from a "little village outside of Birmingham."

She even added that the last time she'd been in Birmingham was on her tour last October - and that was the night she'd met her boyfriend's parents for the first time.

When quizzed, she revealed that she'd done a concert and met the parents after the show, adding that she'd been nervous the whole way through the performance - but for an entirely different reason.

"At that point at the tour, you’re kinda into it," she explained. "You’ve done it a few times. You almost know it by heart. But, it definitely made me go a bit harder than usual, maybe, cause I know they’re watching me and I wanna make them proud, in a weird way."

How cute!

Zara Larsson will be performing at the Birmingham Arena on Saturday 4th May in an incredible line-up alongside Ellie Goulding, Louis Tomlinson, James Arthur, The Vamps, Mabel, Tom Walker, Lewis Capaldi and HRVY.
