It was supposed to be just another unforgettable night on Benson Boone\u2019s American Heart<\/em> tour \u2014 sold-out crowd, emotional vocals, lights, cheers. But no one, especially<\/em> Benson, expected it to turn into a full-blown walk down memory lane when he spotted a familiar face right in the front row: his ex-girlfriend from middle school.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Midway through the set, after performing his heart-wrenching ballad \u201cCry\u201d<\/em>, Benson paused to speak to the crowd. Then he did a double take. \u201cWait\u2026 hold up,\u201d he said, stepping forward with a stunned look. \u201cIs that who I think<\/em> it is?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Live<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The audience looked around, confused\u2014until Benson laughed, dropped to his knees dramatically, and pointed:
\u201cThat\u2019s my first heartbreak sitting RIGHT THERE. Sixth grade. St. Patrick\u2019s Middle School. She broke up with me via a note in math class!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The crowd lost it.<\/strong> His ex-girlfriend, laughing just as hard, waved from her seat and shouted, \u201cYou were dramatic back then too!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Without missing a beat, Benson leaned into the moment like only he can. \u201cYou guys,\u201d he told the crowd, \u201cI used to write sad ukulele songs about this girl. It was the blueprint for all<\/em> my heartbreak anthems.\u201d Then, after a playful sigh, he added, \u201cGuess I owe her royalties.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He even serenaded her with a stripped-down version of \u201cBeautiful Things\u201d<\/em>, joking: \u201cThis one\u2019s for the girl who dumped me before I could even grow facial hair.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
