Dua Lipa surprised an 80-year-old fan who had gone viral on TikTok.
Late last year, Papa Richy's granddaughter uploaded a video to TikTok as a gift to her grandfather for his 80th birthday tickets to see Dua Lipa on her "Future Nostalgia" tour.
The video, in which Papa Richy exclaims "Dua Lipa in concert? Are you kidding me;" it soon went viral and has since garnered almost 2 million likes.
Earlier this week, Papa Richy had the opportunity to meet the pop star during her appearance on Jimmy Fallon's The Tonight Show.
"We contacted him, pretending to be a radio station in New York, and told him he had won a contest for the number one TikTok video of the year - he believed it, he really liked it," Jimmy Fallon told the audience.
"Yesterday we flew him to New York with his granddaughter and he thinks they're going to interview him on a radio show and take him on a tour of Rockefeller Plaza (at NBC in New York). He has no idea what is happening ", he continued.
"He will suffer the biggest surprise of his life," Dua Lipa added.

Richy then stepped out of a dressing room for his "first radio interview" and was taken to the set of "The Tonight Show," which was filming the show at the time.
After a few seconds, Papa Richy realized that Dua Lipa was standing next to Jimmy Fallon and reacted accordingly. "Oh, my God!" He said.
"I read somewhere that one of your dreams is to dance with Dua Lipa," Jimmy Fallon commented before The Roots started playing a disco rhythm to dance together.
Richy then revealed that he and his granddaughter Katie attended the first concert of Dua Lipa's "Future Nostalgia Tour" in Miami.
"I managed to dance with Dua Lipa!" He exclaimed happily, raising his hands in the air as he left the set of "The Tonight Show", while he still seemed unable to believe the surprise.
