FORMER Wangaratta resident Yasmin Nelson had the ultimate experience with her idol Katy Perry two weeks ago when the pop star hosted a zoom call and invited her to sit in.

Yasmin, who moved away from Wangaratta in March, has been a fan of the singer for 10 years, has seen her live eight times and has gifted her various objects at the concerts.

“My first concert was nine years ago when I was 15; I had the dedicated twitter accounts and posters on my walls but it’s calmed down a bit now,” she said.
