Ellie Goulding celebrated in a football shirt as she revealed she will perform at halftime during the England vs Norway match on Saturday.

The Love Me Like You Do singer, 39, took to Instagram on Friday to share the exciting news with her followers.

She posted a series of fun-filled snaps of her jumping on the bed in an England x Palace football shirt.

Alongside the post, she penned: 'Performing at halftime for England vs Norway has me feeling like truly anything could happen…

'I already know the boys will make England proud, it’s coming home.'

The Three Lions squeaked into the last eight after a dramatic victory over Mexico at the Estadio Azteca in the early hours of Monday.

They will now face Norway in the quarter-finals on Saturday, with the game kicking off at 10PM (GMT).

The match will take place at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida.

Ellie has been making the most of her time in New York after attending Taylor Swift's wedding in the city with her boyfriend Beau Minniear.

The British singer and her boyfriend were among 1,000 guests at the epic event held at Madison Square Garden. 

Taylor and fellow singer Ellie met for the first time on the Jonathan Ross Show in 2012 and have been close friends ever since.

'I was really nervous, because she's such a legend,' Ellie recalled years later, 'and I remember thinking, 'Please don't act like a t**t, Ellie - don't say anything stupid.''

Ellie was put at ease when Taylor then quoted one of her lesser known lyrics back to her.

Taylor later invited Ellie to join her as a special guest on her Red Tour in 2013 and later on the 1989 World Tour in 2015.

The collaborations continued with Ellie prominently featured as the character Destructa X in Taylor's star-studded Bad Blood music video in 2015.

For her part Ellie once played matchmaker for Taylor, pre-marriage, setting her up with her close pal Calvin Harris. The two went on to date for a year in 2015.

'Calvin is a really great mate and he's so fantastic, and Taylor is such a cool person who I love,' she explained at the time.

'I thought, 'They're both really awesome and both really tall. They'll be brilliant together.''

In their downtime Ellie has insisted that Taylor is one of her most down-to-earth pals, gushing: 'She's really funny. 

'She's got a very British sense of humour. We love doing scenes from The Office.'
