(Radio.com) Ellen DeGeneres had one powerful moment for a Pulse Nightclub survivor on her show last Thursday (September 8). Tony Marrero, who survived the June massacre at the Orlando nightclub, turned to Katy Perry's single "Rise" to help him recover.
"Have you met Katy yet?" DeGeneres asked him. "You wanna meet Katy?" What followed was an emotional introduction. The moment was designed to be a momentous one for Marrero, but it ended up impacting Perry as well.
