  Ariana grande showed bravery and resiliency as she lead an all-star roster of musicians for the One Love Manchester benefit concert according to Billboard.

  The world’s biggest pop stars united in Manchester to pay tribute to the victims of the Manchester terror attack that has devastated the country for the past two weeks.

  “I want to thank you so much for coming together and being so loving and strong. I think the kind of love and unity you’re displaying is the kind of medicine the world needs right now,” Ariana Grande said, who is  performing in the city for the first time since the Manchester explosion that killed 22 people and injured over 100 more.

  Dressed in a ‘One Love Manchester’ sweatshirt Grande took the stage to perform a rendition of ‘Be Alright’ which she sang the lyrics “we’re gonna be all right” loud and proud.

  After ‘Be Alright’ she turned straight to ‘Break Free’ putting emphasis on the lyrics, “I’m stronger than I’ve been before.”

  Grande did a lot of collaborations in the benefit concer, but among the notable were when she joined The Black Eyed Peas for their song ‘Where Is The Love?’ wherein she took Fergie’s role.

  “I want to thank you so much for coming together and being so loving and strong and unified,” Grande addressed the massive Manchester crowd, adding that their unity is “the medicine that the world really needs right now.”

  Grande ended the show with an piano acoustic version of the song ‘Somewhere Over The Rainbow’. “Thank you, I love you so much,” and took off, leaving a trail of love, hope, and strength behind her,” a teary Ariana said.
