Yesterday, Grande posted the details for One Live Manchester, a concert being held on Sunday, June 4, with proceeds going to the 22 victims' families and dozens injured in the terrorist attack at her concert at Manchester Arena in England. In light of the tragedy, Grande has hired top security for the event.

“Ariana’s new security team consists of ex-military and is said to be the best in the business,” a source close to Grande exclusively revealed to Radar. “She is going to have 24-hour surveillance from now on, no matter what the cost is.”
