Young Taylor Swift fan meets singer before losing her hearing
Taylor Swift just made another super fan very happy.
When Jorja Hope, a 12-year-old girl from Australia, found out she had a condition that results in progressive, inner-ear hearing loss, her first response was, "I won't be able to hear Taylor Swift sing," per Australian newspaper Maitland Mercury.
After learning about the diagnosis, twin sister Chloe decided to set up a social media campaign with the hashtag #HelpJorjaMeetTaylorSwiftSydney. Along with help from Sydney radio station, Nova 96.9, Jorja's wish was granted: On Saturday, she got the chance to meet Swift at the pop star's Sydney show.
"She was very, very amazing and very pretty," said Jorja, who will one day be deaf, according to the Maitland Mercury. "I didn't expect her to be as tall as she was."
