Taylor Swift has gone ahead and done it again. She’s made it clear just why she’s the most beloved singer on the planet. This time around, Swift met up with a fan backstage during a tour stop in Sydney, Australia, posing for a photo that 12-year old Jorja Hope will remember forever and ever. Sadly, Jorja suffers from a condition that causes “progressive, inner-ear hearing loss.” When the young lady first learned about her diagnosis, her mother, Melissa, told The Maitland Mercury that Jorja reacted by saying “I won’t be able to hear Taylor Swift sing.” “Jorja has battled her whole life from being born preemie with growth problems, to surgeries on her ears already and five surgeries for broken bones,” Melissa added. “She is a fighter, no matter what happens, she smiles and keeps going.” In honor of her brave sister, Jorja’s twin, Chloe, started to trend the hashtag “#helpjorjameettaylorswiftsydney” on social media. Chloe also set up a Facebook campaign that was picked up by a local radio station and which was eventually learned of by Swift herself. And, once she heard about Jorja’s story, you just knew Swift would come through for her in the most heartwarming way possible. “[She’s] very, very amazing,” Jorja said on Australia’s Today Show after meeting the artist. “And very pretty. Taylor Swift, she is my idol. She’s a good role model. I didn’t expect her to be as tall as she was!” Swift, of course, has been known to interact with fans and to help turn their dreams into a reality. She once responded to a supporter whose mother was diagnosed with cancer and she once donated $50,000 to a fan in need. No wonder little girls want to make 1,989 paper cranes in her honor , huh?
