LINCOLN — The screaming crowds, security guards, groupies and motorcade at a Lincoln elementary school Wednesday were for an 11-year-old Lincoln boy battling a brain tumor and dreaming of pop stardom.

Cayden Hubbard, a fifth-grader at Maxey Elementary, was called out of class after the morning bell Wednesday to learn that his Make-A-Wish to be a pop star would be granted.

Dozens of photographers, volunteers and family members surrounded him as he walked the red carpet at his school's front entrance into a black stretch Ford Excursion limousine, past hundreds of sign-holding and screaming schoolmates.

He requested and sipped white milk during the limo ride.
