Unfortunately the entertainment and music world seems to be dominated by stories of scandal, but here is a feel good story courtesy of Beyonce. According to Perth Now, this past week at a concert in Perth, Australia Beyonce sang with a legally blind fan named Sophie Kotkis.

The feel good moment was caught on video, which you can watch below. The special moment was apparently set up by Sophie's sister Ellie who made a video showing what an amazing person her younger sister Sophie is.

"She's never really been able to go to a concert due to logistical reasons so I made a video about Sophie," Ellie said to Perth Now. "Even with everything that she's been through, she's been able to do so much. She raised over $1,000 for people with multiple sclerosis at the Runamuck (for the MS Society). I put that all in the video and I just said that I think someone as amazing as Sophie deserves to meet someone as amazing as you (Beyonce)."

Ellie also explained how important music is to her sister Sophie. "It was so important for me because there's been a lot of things in life that Sophie hasn't been able to do, but she loves music, loves to dance and loves to sing and this was just something for me to show the world how amazing she is," Ellie explained. "I've gained so much having her as a sister."

Ellie and Sophie's family friend then apparently sent the video Ellie made to Beyonce's manager, who then invited Sophie to Beyonce's Nov. 8 concert. The result is the feel good moment shown on video below.

You can see in the video Beyonce takes a moment to recognize Sophie and gives her a chance to sing along with her as she performs. Click here to watch the video.
