A fan gave X-Factor star Cher Lloyd a live goldfish in a plastic bag as a present.

The 18-year-old 'Want U Back' singer was signing CDs during a US tour when a fan presented her with the unexpected gift, according to a report in Contactmusic.

She said: "I was doing a signing and this person came up to me and they had something behind their back. They then put it on the table and it was a goldfish in a bag.

"They didn't say anything, they just walked away and left me with a goldfish.

"I felt really bad as I couldn't go home with it so I gave it to someone who had a pond," she explained.
