One boy cried happy tears last night after coming face-to-face with his drag queen hero.

C.J. Duron, 9, received a surprise visit from Bob the Drag Queen -- the season 8 winner of "RuPaul’s Drag Race," after photos of the boy's Halloween costume emulating Bob went viral.

"I'm very excited to meet C.J.," Bob told ABC News ahead of the meeting. "I've never met a kid who dressed as me for Halloween before."

On Oct. 19, C.J.'S mom, Lori Duron of Orange County, California, told ABC News that her son loves Halloween and starts planning his costume in August.

Duron said C.J. is gender non-conforming and considers himself part of the LGBTQ community.

Since he was old enough to choose his own Halloween costumes, C.J. has preferred to shop in the "girls' section" at the Halloween store, she added.

"Halloween is his favorite holiday because he can be his authentic self and he looks forward to it all year long," Duron said. " feel like he spends so much of the year editing himself based on what everybody thinks. When this day comes there's no editing and I think it's great."

I'm happy we live in a world now (at least in the US) where children this young are allowed to be themselves like this at such a young age :golfclap:

The fact that kids this young are managing to find themselves this early on is reassuring tbh :flutter:

Even more reassuring is that he has such a loving and accepting family behind him :flutter:

Life ain't Hollywood for any one of us.
