An 89-year-old woman, Laverne Tucker, has fulfilled her wish of meeting American singer Usher after a video of her expressing her desire to meet the singer went viral.
Her granddaughter had shared a video of Laverne talking about wanting to meet Usher, prompting music executive Jermaine Dupri to comment that he would make sure it happened.
The wish eventually came true when Laverne attended The R&B Tour in Atlanta and met the singer backstage. During their meeting, she told him he was handsome.
After the show, Usher also sent her flowers and a card bearing the message: “It’s really great to know now that we are family.”
