A Worcestershire pop star has hit back at a cruel troll who made a nasty social media comment after the Concert for Ukraine.
Becky Hill, originally of Bewdley, took to the stage last night for a powerful performance of the Candi Staton classic You've Got The Love.
A Twitter user commented: " This Concert for Ukraine is ******* awful. Just a collection of the ******** artists going.
"I imagine the Ukrainians would rather be at war than listen to Becky Hills' horrific voice."
The meanspiritied comment caught the attention of the pop star, who fired back with an expletive comment of her own.
The singer was one of many acts last night performing to raise money for the ongoing crisis in Ukraine.
The concert raised £12.2 million for the humanitarian effort in the war-torn nation for the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) and its response to the Russian invasion.

After the song, she turned to applaud the band and was met with a roar of applause from the crowd at the event.
The Worcestershire popstar recently won Best Dance Act at this year's BRIT Awards 2022 with Mastercard.
The two-hour concert was held at the Resorts World Arena in Birmingham and was shown on ITV 1.
Other acts in attendance at the event included the likes of Ed Sheeran, Camilla Cabello, Anne-Marie and Gregory Porter.
The show was also accompanied by short video pieces documenting the lives of displaced Ukrainians both inside and outside the country.
At the end of the night, the hosts announced that ticket sales, advertising, sponsorship and donations had led to the grand total, but it was expected to continue rising.
