Lorde finally met her muse.

On Tuesday night, the 17-year-old Grammy Award winner from New Zealand posed for a photograph with Hall of Fame third baseman George Brett — who was the inspiration for her award-winning song, “Royals.”

As the story goes, Lorde — whose real name is Ella Yelich-O’Connor — was looking through a National Geographic magazine one day and saw a photo of a smiling Brett signing autographs for fans.

“He was a baseball player and his shirt said, ‘Royals,'” Lorde told VH1. “It was just that word. It’s really cool.”

According to TMZ, Lorde’s representatives contacted Brett and asked whether he would like to meet the singer before her Tuesday night concert in Las Vegas.

Brett had never been able to make a Lorde concert because of scheduling conflicts, but had sent her an autographed jersey when she had a concert in Kansas City, writing, “Lorde, you are Royal to me.”
