Florence Welch has talked about the possibility of her appearing at one of Taylor Swift's upcoming London shows.
The Florence + The Machine singer features on the song Florida!!!, which is taken from from the pop star's latest album, The Tortured Poets Department and has discussed whether she'd perform the song live with the singer on stage.
Quizzed about the chances of her heading to one of Swift's eight shows at Wembley Stadium the capital this June, she told British Vogue coyly: "If I was gonna do it, it would be a surprise."

The Dog Days are Over singer also admitted she was slightly naive about "the scale" of Taylor Swfit's world and the impact of making a song with the American singer.
“I almost didn’t think of the scale of it," she mused to the outlet. "There’s the sort of bigness of [Taylor Swift the phenomenon], and then there’s the Taylor I spend time with in the studio, who is just the sweetest and most down to earth.”
“We had such a fun time," she added. "And then when it came out I was like, ‘Oh, s***!'”
