- Music. Taylor Hawkins death: Live updates and reactions
A nine-year-old girl in Paraguay got the chance to meet her hero Taylor Hawkins, just hours before the Foo Fighters drummer sadly passed away.
Young fan Emma took her drum set to the rock star's hotel in Asuncion, Paraguay, in an attempt grab the attention of her idol.
The young Paraguayan played the band's song on the drums in an attempt to get Hawkins to come out of the hotel and she was successful.
The girl's father posted a photo of the pair smiling together outside the Sheraton hotel, and it's gone viral on social media.
"When my daughter found out that the Foo Fighters were coming, she started a campaign to meet them," her father wrote.
"Today we took her drums to play in front of the Sheraton and look who came out. Dreams come true."
Fans spoke of how Hawkins came out of the hotel looking for where the sound of drums was coming from, and happily went over to greet the young girl and have a photo taken.
Tragically, Hawkins passed away almost 48 hours later ahead of a scheduled performance at the Estereo Picnic Festival in Bogota, Colombia.
