Is this the world's biggest Beyoncé superfan?<br /><br />Meet the woman who has spent £60k on merch and tour visits, appeared in two of her films, and has a separate bank account dedicated to spending on the star.<br /><br />Agren Blom, 28, first became a Beyoncé mega-fan when she saw the singer promoting her 2006 album ‘B’Day’ on TV.<br /><br />Since then, she’s been to 43 shows, spent £10k alone on merchandise - and even had a conversation with Jay-Z about how much she loves his wife.<br /><br />The prison therapist works seven days a week to pay for her hobby - and says her shows are an "escape" from real life.<br /><br />Devoted Agren says the star is "family" and she feels just as close to her as she does her parents, and once attended TEN dates on one tour.<br /><br />She's been to so many shows with the same banner Bey now recognises her from the stage.<br /><br />And when she showed it to Jay-Z he signed it and snapped a pick - presumably to show his other half.<br /><br />Agren's connection to the singer is so deep she says she feels every time she struggles with something in life, Beyoncé releases a new song with the answer.<br /><br />Agren from Appingedam, Netherlands, said: “I’m so thankful to Beyoncé for giving me all of this - her music resonates with me like nothing else. <br /><br />"I work hard to dedicate myself to her - even though we don’t personally know each other.<br /><br />“I have my full-time job and my side hustle - I work seven days a week and I even opened up a new bank account just for her. I call it my Beyoncé bank account.<br /><br />“Her shows give me an escape from real life. You always feel good when you’re there.<br /><br />“She’s as much a part of my life as my mum or my dad - she’s like family.”<br /><br />Agren remembers dancing along to ‘B’Day’ with her school friends at the age of eight. <br /><br />The singer was, at the time, on her ‘The Beyoncé Experience’ world tour - but Agren’s parents said she was too young to go. <br /><br />Instead, they bought her some posters - and she put them up around her classroom. <br /><br />Three years later, she went to her first concert - the ‘I Am…’ world tour at the Sportpaleis van Ahoy in Rotterdam, on May 2, 2009. <br /><br />She said: “I looked up at her, and she just looked like a doll to me. It was like she wasn’t real.<br /><br />“All I could do was cry - I was so overwhelmed from what I saw.<br /><br />“From that point, my love for her just grew.”<br /><br />When the star was next on tour, between 2013 - 2014, Agren had already opened up her Beyoncé bank account - and she spent around £10k to attend ten dates. <br /><br />She watched her perform in cities like London, Rotterdam, Brussels and Antwerp - and even travelled to Chelmsford to watch her headline V Festival in August 2013. <br /><br />Over the last 10 years, Agren has been to 33 more stops across four more tours - including On the Run, Formation and Renaissance. <br /><br />She created a banner to take to each show, which she regularly updates with the number of times she’s seen Beyoncé. <br /><br />“I’m always VIP, always front row,” Agren added.
