Katy Perry performs surprise gig for fan recovering from brain surgery
After an operation on her brain, Grace couldn't make the gig she'd been looking forward to all year - so Katy brought it to her.
Katy Perry made a sick fan's day when she turned up unannounced to play a gig in her living room. Eight-year-old Grace Moores, who had recently undergone surgery for a brain tumour, thought she was going to have to miss the concert. She was diagnosed with a brain tumour in April. The Australian KatyCat, who has been a Perry fan since she was three, had been given the tickets for her birthday more than a year ago. However, a social media campaign started by Grace's older sister Tiana - using the hashtag #helpGracemeetKatyPerry - brought the young fan's plight to the popstar's attention. The original post received more than 21,000 retweets. Perry, 33, posted a video of her visit, during which she performed her hit song Firework at Grace's flat in Adelaide, titling it "The Power Of The Internet". She told fans: "Today is one of those days when I actually feel like a unicorn. That's because I get to use my powers for good.
