A little girl battling cancer had her wish come true as she met Grammy Award-winning Canadian singer The Weeknd. In a heartfelt gesture, the little girl even came prepared with gifts for the artist and his pet dog.
A video of their interaction was posted on the Instagram page Magically News four days ago. The girl met The Weeknd, whose real name is Abel Makkonen Tesfaye, before he was due to perform a concert. She then gave him the gifts that she had brought for him and his pet dog named Caesar. She is also seen running towards him as The Weeknd picks her up in his arms and gives her a hug at the end of the video.
