When it comes to The Ellen DeGeneres Show, we never know if we're in for a barrel of laughs or a world of tears.
And while she normally manages to strike a balance with her guests and reports, yesterday's episode was definitely one of the more emotional of the season.
Appearing on the show on Thursday, Tony Marrero explained that he was hospitalised after being shot multiple times in the back when Omar Mateen opened fire in a popular gay hotspot on June 12 this year.
And after surviving the shooting at Orlando's Pulse nightclub this summer, Tony Marrero revealed that he had found solace in the lyrics of Katy Perry's song Rise.
So, in perfect Ellen form, the chat show host invited Katy onto the show to meet Tony in a surprise moment which had everyone including Katy and Tony in tears.
Be warned, you won't get through this without filling up.
