One of the shows Gaga cancelled was in Chicago, but when she found out a five-year-old girl with an inoperable heart condition had traveled there for the show, the superstar flew out to meet her.
Tony Waitekus, a host from the local radio station WSAU, reached out to Gaga's camp to set up the meeting with Kayleigh Gurbynski.
"Even though Lady Gaga was not well enough to do the show tonight due to Doctors order (suffering from joint pain), Lady Gaga made it a point of still meeting Kayleigh!" Waitekus wrote on WSAU Facebook page. "Fantastic for Kayleigh and my hats off to Lady Gaga and her people for making this happen!"
The Facebook page also showed pictures of Gaga in an unusually toned-down black ensemble, smiling next to Kayleigh.
"It just goes to show that no matter what you say about some of these high-falutin artists, many of them do have huge hearts and put them to good use sometimes, and that happened here," Waitekus said. "She did the right thing, and she did it because she wanted to do it. I just can't say enough about her for doing that."
