During a recent stop in Charlotte, N.C. Tyler Perry’s “Madea’s Farewell Play Tour”opened to a pack house where fans came to get their final dose of Madea. Among those fans was R&B sensation, Fantasia (American Idol alum) who, while sitting in the audience, was put on the spot to spread a little joy with her powerhouse voice.


The result is a moment thankfully captured on video showing Fantasia grabbing the mic, singing her classic 2006 hit., “When I See You” in the middle of the audience aisles.


Fantasia had the audience singing along mimicking every word. Tyler Perry, still on stage as his beloved character Mabel “Madea” Simmons, gave props to the 35-year-old as her impromptu performance ended with a standing ovation from the audience.
