SZA gave one lucky fan some free tickets to her latest show with Kendrick Lamar, and even shouted him out on stage after spotting him in the crowd.
On Monday (May 12), a fan named Michael Chiaravalloti waited outside the venue in Foxborough, Mass. just for a chance to meet the R&B star. Documenting the whole exchange on Instagram, the video showed SZA ultimately arriving, and when he asked if he could get a ticket to her show, the singer said yes without hesitation. In return, she merely asked for him to have “maximum energy” in the pit later that night.
Chiaravalloti’s night only got better from there, as video shows that SZA waved at him from the stage, even calling out “Hi Michael” before diving back into her set. When the fan shared an Instagram of the two amazing moments, SZA then responded and explained why she gave him the tickets.
“Just wanna say growing up in a smallish town and not being well liked or understood in high school +middle school does something to you,” she wrote. “I care SO much about ppl being seen and heard . I want you to know I care I’m here! I hear you and I see you and you MATTER TO ME . That’s it . That’s my driving force and I love you . Thank you for being here w me.”
SZA’s good deed comes as she heads deeper into the Grand National Tour with Lamar, with the duo heading to Seattle on Saturday (May 17).
