Taylor Swift Fan Gets Surprise Of A Lifetime At Grammys

WOODLAND HILLS (CBSLA.com) — A Taylor Swift fan got the surprise of a lifetime when the singer-songwriter sought her out at the Grammys Awards.

Jill Ralke posted to Tumblr that she would be at the award show with tickets given to her by her father, who does lighting for the pre-show.

She tagged Swift, who then replied: "Seriously?" Swift then asked Ralke where she'd be, and Ralke provided her seat number.

Then, halfway through the show, Swift's publicist came and got the very-shocked fan.

"I never thought I would actually, she would actually, this would actually come true or anything," she said.

Ralke, 20, met Swift backstage and talked with her about relationships, Grammy fashion and snapped a few selfies.

Before the show was over, Ralke posted the photos online.

"Immediately, so many notes, and re-blogs and likes. It was crazy the amount of hits I got on those pictures," she said. "Right now, this is the best day of my life, and I don't think anything can ever compete with it."
