After receiving a hug from Queen Bey herself at the 2016 VMA's, Laurie Hernandez reacted like any of us would.
With her beaming smile and killer gymnastic skills, Laurie Hernandez is most definitely a fan favorite athlete and person. Last night at the MTV VMAs, the 16-year-old won even more hearts around the world with an ultimate fan girl reaction to meeting Beyonce for the first time.
The Final Five — minus Gabby Douglas, who was hospitalized for an allergic reaction — presented Bey with a Moonman for Best Female Video. Dripping in 13 million dollars worth of jewels, paired with a shimmering gown fit for a queen, the sensational singer warmly embraced the girls before addressing the audience.
Laurie, of course, totally freaked out because, well, who wouldn't?!
She even shared her feelings about the glorious moment on Twitter.
I just hugged Beyoncé

Beyoncé isn't the only celeb Laurie was pumped to meet. The foursome managed to snag some memorable pictures with Ariana Grande, Ashley Graham, a few Victoria's Secret Models, G-Eazy, and Kim and Kanye West. Hernandez shared her selfie with Kanye along with a very fitting caption.
It's hard to get enough of Laurie, which is why we are so excited to see her on Season 23 of Dancing With The Stars. Seriously, we can't wait!
