A GLASGOW venue has offered to pay Denise Ferrie's fines after she was arrested in the city on Easter Sunday.
Bar Budda in Sauchiehall Street have started the 'free our lollipop campaign' on social media.
It comes after the 33-year-old was arrested in connection with a number of outstanding warrants.
Prior to the arrest, she had performed her first solo show at the venue.
Bar Budda said: "Bar Budda loved Denise Ferrie so much that we have been given the green light to pay any fines Denise has."
The bar then encouraged users to share the post on social media.
The Evening Times was first to report on how social media users had overwhelmingly responded to Denise's unique tribute at a funeral.
It shows her standing at a graveside in what is believed to be Coltswood Cemetery in Coatbridge.
Looking up to the sky, while surrounded by other loved ones, she breaks into Millie Small’s 1965 hit My Boy Lollipop in a distinctively Scottish style.
She is also a known rapper among pals and is called ‘Slim’.
