Mary J Blige surprises Rana Otemro

Rana Otemro from Watford, south England thought she was one of just 30 people who were able to watch a special live-streamed performance by Mary at Village Underground in Shoreditch, East London, but was surprised when the singer appeared from behind the curtain.

Rana said after the meeting: "[It was] the best moment of my life. Mary J Blige is my icon - her music is so honest and real. When she appeared in front of my eyes, I had to turn around and check that my friends were seeing the same thing as me - I really couldn't believe it.

"The moment that she asked me to come up on stage as she sang was incredible."

Mary performed her track 'Nobody But You' before invited Rana on-stage, and was happy to surprise someone who had given her so much support.

"My fans inspire me to make music, they are the reason I do what I do. It was amazing to be part of this experience and surprise someone who has dedicated so much support to me - I have never surprised a fan on this scale before.

"It was also great to be back in London after recording my most recent album here."

The surprise came as part of MasterCard's Priceless Surprises campaign in support of this year's BRIT Awards.

Other artists including Kaiser Chiefs, Usher and Paloma Faith have been lined up to give their own fans the surprise of a life time.
