Country star Kane Brown is being praised for his touching interaction with a young fan who revealed to the musician that he was being bullied.
The 30-year-old Be Like That singer interrupted his concert in Denver, Colorado, on September 6 to give a hug to a child who was being bullied for “the color of his skin.”
The boy, named Keylan, showed up to Kane’s concert wearing a cowboy hat and country outfit, and carrying a heartbreaking sign that read: “I’m being bullied because of the color of my skin. I just want a hug from Kane.”
Keylan’s touching poster caught the attention of the music sensation as he performed his hit Good As You, prompting him to walk off stage and give his fan a hug.
Kane, who previously revealed he was bullied as a child, turned to the audience as he performed a few tunes while approaching the young boy before sharing what the “sweet” moment meant to him.

In the past, Kane has spoken openly about his experience growing up poor and how bullying at school due to his lack of money affected him.
He said Entertainment Tonight: ‘I grew up a little bit different. I was bullied in school so it was tough and I grew up with very little money. I feel like there are a lot of scenes in here where you can really see how I was raised so I can’t wait to see the final product of this music video.
‘We had nowhere to stay and we were staying in a car for about two weeks.
‘I grew up with nothing and I’m happy to be able to support myself now and to be able to support my mother and nanny if they need anything.’
