Kelly previously revealed on her web series why she really wanted to meet Meryl. "People always ask me why I'm obsessed with her," she shared. "Other than the fact that she's an amazing actor, she's also an amazing singer." She added, "I'll at least get to see her from stage and maybe be like, 'Hi Meryl,' because I'm not professional on live national television."
