This wish story makes me feel: |
|||
Monroe and her family arrived by limo at the venue where Justin Bieber’s concert would take place. Monroe had a backstage escort to meet her favorite singer. The family made themselves at home in his private trailer while they waited for the star to arrive.
Justin’s fans, waiting to catch a glimpse of the superstar, must have wondered what made five-year-old Monroe so special. They might find it hard to believe that the smiling little girl had endured months of chemotherapy. But they could definitely understand why meeting the pop star would be her one true wish.
Monroe Comes Face-to-Face With Her Teen Idol
When Justin entered the trailer, Monroe became so nervous and shy that she hid behind her mother. Justin went straight to Monroe and gave her a big hug, which put her at ease. The two chatted about Justin’s music along with their shared love for the L.A. Lakers and the color purple.
Justin presented Monroe and her sister with autographed t-shirts. He also signed another shirt of Monroe’s as well as the sisters’ matching “I Met Justin Bieber” hats. Justin and Monroe had fun showing off their “model walks” in front of everyone as Monroe displayed her autographed apparel.
Justin Shares His Love of Music
When the meet-and-greet was coming to a close, Justin announced that he had something to give Monroe. Inside a huge triangular box was a brand-new Gibson guitar – just like the one Justin uses during his shows! He autographed the guitar for her, and encouraged her to learn to play it.
Finally, Justin had to say goodbye to Monroe and her family so he could get ready for the show. Monroe asked Justin’s contact person to pass on an important message that she’d forgotten to tell Justin herself – that she wanted to marry him! She received a promise that the superstar would get her message.
The family enjoyed the show from upgraded seats. As they left the concert venue, Monroe expressed her deepest gratitude and happiness to her Make-A-Wish® escort: “Thank you! This is the bestest day in my whole life, ever. Thank you for my perfect wish.”

Awww what a sweet story! Not the greatest Justin Beiber fan but this warmed my heart. It's so beautiful when such big celebrities can take the time to grant someone's wish like this, I hope this little princess left his concert feeling like the luckiest girl in the world. Bravo Justin, and Make A Wish is one of the best organizations out there, thank you for all that you do!
