Los Angeles: Singer Beyonce Knowles used video calling app FaceTime to connect with young cancer patient Ebony Banks, after a social media campaign under the hashtag #EbobmeetsBeyonce grabbed her attention.


Beyonce surprised the teenager, who has been battling with a rare form of the disease, with a video call on Wednesday, because it has always been her lifelong dream to meet her "idol", reports usmagazine.com.


Speaking to KHOU channel about her last wish, Banks, who is also known as Ebob, said: "She's (Beyonce) like my everything and my idol. And if I ever met her, I would probably pass out."

Knowles, who has five-year-old daughter Blue Ivy with her husband Jay Z and is pregnant with twins, learnt about Banks's dream to meet her through her school friends, who started the campaign on social media.
