ORLANDO, FLA. (WSVN) - A grandmother who made headlines for her adorable reaction to getting Justin Timberlake tickets got to meet the man himself.
Sarah Watson said her 88-year-old grandmother, Bette Maloney, is obsessed with Justin Timberlake. Watson said that every time her iPad needs to be fixed, it’s because she has too many windows open in Safari, and they’re all related to Timberlake in some way.

When Watson surprised her “Nammie” with tickets to his show, her video quickly went viral.
But that wasn’t the only surprise she ended up getting.
At Timberlake’s show on Monday night in Orlando, Maloney’s favorite singer gave her a shout-out in front of the crowd and invited her backstage.
