On October 13, 2025, during a stop on her Lifetimes Tour at The O2 in London, pop star Katy Perry, 40, shared a heartwarming backstage moment with nine children facing serious illnesses. The children, wearing colorful outfits, patiently waited for Perry, who then emerged from a nearby room to greet them.
Perry took the time to meet and learn the names, interests, and ages of each child. She then posed for photos with the group, energizing them ahead of her performance at the England venue. One of the children who met Perry was Florrie Bark, a 9-year-old whose charity, Bemorefab, raises funds to support children fighting cancer like herself.
Florrie's mother, Stacy, reflected on the special moment, saying, "They were able to have one day where they weren't just patients worrying about their next treatment. ... This will stay with us forever." Perry's nonprofit, the Firework Foundation, has been providing fans with heartwarming experiences since 2018, including hosting a multi-day arts-focused camp for middle school students.
