She cries tears of joy after her mum and sister handed over the gold-dust briefs outside venue on footage viewed more tens of thousands of times on TikTok.

Lexi-Mae told The Scottish Sun: “It was the best surprise ever.
“I couldn’t believe it.

“Taylor was amazing.

“All her songs are brilliant but Love Story is my favourite and I got to see her sing it.

“I’m so happy I got to go.”

Dad Garry Elliott, 33, forked out £600 after a pal offered the last-minute spares.

The family, from Pollok, Glasgow, took the train through to the capital telling the youngster they were going to listen to the concert from outside.

Lexi-Mae’s sisters Chloe, 14, and Summer, 15, helped do her hair and glittery make-up before mum Karen, 36, handed over the tickets.

Her eyes go wide before she bursts into tears while shaking her head and repeating “no” in disbelief.

Garry said: “Lexi-Mae thought we were just going to be standing outside and she was more than happy.

“She’s a proper Swiftie so when they chance came up to get the tickets I knew we had to get them.

“It’s a lot of money but I think I got a bit of a deal compared to the prices some people had to pay.

“It was worth every penny.”

Taylor fans have shared the video more than 23,000 times online and praised the youngster for her excited reaction and thanks to her parents.

Karen said: “We’re just a normal family and don’t have that kind of money lying about for concert tickets.

“We’re getting married next year and had to raid our wedding fund.
“We’d do it all again though.

“The reaction to the video has been amazing — it makes me proud when people compliment us for raising such a polite wee girl.”
