Last night singer Keri Hilson got the chance to meet her “idol” Lauryn Hill at a show in NYC. She excitedly tweeted the experience to her fans:

“No one understands…I will never be the same. Utmost respect 4 Lauryn Hill. So beautiful. Very down to earth. Anyone who knows me knows she’s a huge inspiration to me…I told her 2nite. Said she loves Pretty Girl Rock (SCREAAAM) & her daughter loves me! Said my music embodies a certain confidence women need. I’m so inspired.”

It’s always exciting getting to meet those that have inspired you! I think my “moment” was chatting with Salt N Pep a couple years ago. Do you guys have any stories of meeting your idols?? IFWT would love to hear!!
