A devoted Katy Perry fan is experiencing a surge in popularity after a video of him meeting the pop star went viral, accumulating nearly a million views online. The encounter took place during Perry's "Lifetimes Tour" stop in Vancouver, Canada.
The fan, Braiden Palumbo, traveled from Redcliff, Alberta, to attend the concert. Since the interaction, he's become a local celebrity, with neighbors recognizing him. He mentioned that people now frequently approach him, just to take pictures.
In the video, Palumbo shared that he is from Medicine Hat, a city near his hometown. Perry, playfully confused, joked about needing to improve her geography. She then learned about his job at a Co-op gas bar, which she found intriguing.
Perry, known for engaging with fans during her performances, recently made headlines for dining with former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Palumbo expressed his gratitude for the shared moment with Perry and the opportunity to represent his small town.
Palumbo has been a long-time Katy Perry fan. When Perry began inviting people on stage, he seized his chance. He raised his arms and shouted to get her attention. The video, originally posted on TikTok, has gained significant traction, sparking speculation about Perry's future tour plans. Palumbo has also updated his Instagram profile picture to a selfie with Perry.

Why are we celebrating mediocrity? Just because he met a celebrity doesn’t make him special.
