The heartwarming moment Taylor Swift grants a young girl with terminal cancer a special wish at Sydney concert: ‘The sweetest thing!’

Taylor Swift made the dream of a terminally ill nine-year-old girl come true on Friday.

During the first of her shows in Sydney during her Eras tour, Swift chose young Scarlett, who is battling an aggressive form of brain cancer, as the recipient of her signature ’22’ fedora.

Taylor has established a tradition of giving a signed hat to a lucky fan in the crowd while she sings her song, 22.

Earlier on Friday, Scarlett’s stepmother Natalie had posted on social media that it was her stepdaughter’s wish to meet Taylor.

“Scarlett received a ‘wish’ from the Make A Wish Foundation and her wish was to meet Taylor Swift,” Natalie wrote in the post.

“Unfortunately, they told us this wasn’t possible, so through the power of social media and some generous people, we made it possible to attend the concert and received tickets.”

She then shared a photo of Scarlett, who has only 12 to 18 months to live, holding a poster that read, “Taylor, can I please have the 22 hat?”

Later during the concert, the young girl’s wish was Taylor’s command.

The singer invited Scarlett on stage, hugged her as she handed over the fedora and then tenderly kissed her hands.
