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.

Following the attack, Grande said in a statement posted to Instagram: "We will not quit or operate in fear. We won't let this divide us. We won't let hate win."
All proceeds of the concert are going to the “We Love Manchester Emergency Fund” set up by the Manchester City Council in partnership with the British Red Cross.
