AceShowbiz - Niall Horan gave a prime ticket to a fan for his show at Madison Square Garden, almost two years after they both vowed to be "front row" if he sold out the iconic New York City venue. The former One Direction star, 30, is currently in the midst of his "The Show" tour, which bears the same name as his third studio album, released last year. After playing shows across Europe, Australia, and Asia earlier this year, the tour arrived in the U.S. in late May, with the first of two shows at MSG on Thursday, June 13.
Horan's performance at MSG proved to be a moment in the making for the Irish-born singer. On October 24, 2022, he had a conversation with fans on X, formerly Twitter, about the possibility of one day taking the stage at the famous venue. While performing on Thursday, June 13, Horan spoke to one fan who had vowed she would be at his MSG show and showed the audience her X post in which she promised to be there even if it sold out. The star said in a video clip shared on TikTok that his online interaction with his fan has "done the rounds right up until this very moment," adding that Megan was "a big part" of his achievement.
Revisiting the conversation on Thursday, on the day of his first show at MSG, Horan wrote on X, "We did it!!!!!!" Megan expressed her gratitude on social media, writing on her X account @megs_heaven, "I love u so much thank u so so much Niall @NiallOfficial words can't explain." As of press time, the post has garnered more than 1.5 million views. "I owe Niall my whole life what was tonight," Megan wrote on X following the show, adding that she "got front row." "I love Niall [Horan] so f**king much it's unreal," she further said of Horan, who rose to fame with the boy band One Direction back in 2011. "13 years, never imagined this."
