Two Beyonce [ tickets ] fans who suffered minor burns after a pyro effect malfunctioned during the R&B singer's Sunday (7/8) concert in St. Louis reportedly received a personal visit from Beyonce at the hospital.

One of the victims--identified as 19-year-old Bailey Stiles of Springfield, MO--told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that Beyonce showed up at the Barnes-Jewish Hospital emergency room around 1 a.m. to make sure that Stiles and the second victim, identified as Chastity Rodgers of Belleville, were alright.

"She just kind of walked in," Stiles was quoted as saying. "Pretty much, I was like, 'Oh my God, I can't believe she's really here' ... I was just awestruck."

Beyonce reportedly spent about 45 minutes at the hospital and posed for a photograph.

Stiles and Rodgers were treated and released, according to the Post-Dispatch report, which said that the two were hurt when sparks from a pyrotechnics display landed on some concertgoers in the front rows.
