Ariana Grande’s Manchester benefit concert to go on as planned after London attack

A major Ariana Grande benefit concert for victims of the Manchester concert bombing a few weeks ago will go on as planned a day after another attack in London.

Grande’s manager tweeted out a statement Sunday that the concert won’t be delayed or postponed.

“We must not be afraid, and in tribute to all those affected here and around the world, we will bring our voices together and sing loudly,”according to the statement posted by manager Scooter Braun.


The concert is expected to include acts such as Katy Perry, Justin Bieber and Coldplay.

Manchester police will beef up security at the event, according to a report in CNN.

A terrorist bombing at a Grande concert a few weeks ago killed 22 people.

On Saturday, three terrorists struck pedestrians on London Bridge in a van, then exited the vehicle to stab numerous people at nearby restaurants and bars. The suspects were killed by police.

The latest attack left seven people dead and 48 people injured.
