Beyoncé has sent her condolences to the family of a young Australian fan, Chelsea Lee James, who died last week after a long battle with cancer. The singer sent 90 white roses and a personally signed card to Chelsea's mother, Donna.
The card read: 'Donna, love and prayers to you and your family. Chelsea was a beautiful girl and I am so happy I was able to meet her. She touched my heart and I will never forget her.'
Beyoncé first met Chelsea during a concert in Sydney in 2009, where she brought the then 11-year-old onto the stage and sang 'Halo' to her in front of more than 20,000 people. They met again last year, when a children's charity arranged a backstage meeting during Beyoncé's Mrs Carter world tour.
Chelsea, who was 15 at the time of her death, passed away surrounded by family and friends after being rushed to hospital when her condition deteriorated.
