Gracie Abrams paused her recent concert for a touching reason. On Monday, the pop star was performing in Dublin, Ireland, when she spotted a sign in the crowd. The poster featured a photo of a woman named Lolly along with the words, “We miss you.”

Abrams walked to the edge of the stage to take to the person holding the sign. The friend explained, “That’s my best friend! She had tickets tonight.”
“She’s so beautiful. She’s the most beautiful person I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much for bringing her with you tonight,” Abrams replied. “I’m so sorry for your loss. This is so gorgeous. I’m so, so, so sorry.”
When the fan tried to reassure Abrams by saying, “It’s OK,” the singer said, “No, it’s not. It’s not ok.”
Abrams then added, “This is so beautiful that she’s with you here tonight. Thanks so much for coming.”

The GRAMMY-nominated singer proceeded to prop the sign up on the stage, before moving her microphone aside and talking directly to the grieving fan. While some of Abrams’ comments are inaudible in the video, the singer can be heard saying, “I’m here for you and I love you so much.”
“She’s gorgeous,” Abrams added. “She’s with us.”
As she sat back down at her keyboard, Abrams once again smiled at the fan in the audience and put her hands over her heart.
Alongside the video, the fan wrote, “Gracie honoring our best friend at her dream concert. We miss you, Lolly.”
“Thank you @gracie abrams @Gracie AbramsHQ for giving our best friend lolly her special moment on her 6th month anniversary,” the TikTok captioned the clip.
In another TikTok video, Abrams is seen singing her song “I Miss You, I’m Sorry” with Lolly’s photo propped up below her.
“Thank you so much @gracie abrams @GracieAbramsHQ made this day so special,” the TikTok user captioned the clip.
The special moment came amid Abrams’ The Secret of Us Tour. The tour kicked off last September in Portland, Oregon, and is set to conclude August 22 in Mexico City. In between, Abrams will perform all over Europe, Asia, Australia, and the U.S.
