MANCHESTER, England — Ariana Grande has canceled the remainder of her “Dangerous Woman Tour” after nearly two dozen people were killed, and dozens more injured, in a bombing at her concert in Manchester, England on Monday.
A representative from her management team released a statement saying, “Due to the tragic events in Manchester, the Dangerous Woman Tour with Ariana Grande has been suspended until we can further assess the situation and pay our proper respects to those lost…we ask at this time that we all continue to support the city of Manchester and all those families affected by this cowardice and senseless act of violence. Our way of life has once again been threatened but we will overcome this together.”

The popstar has since returned home to Boca Raton, Florida, where she was greeted by her boyfriend rapper Mac Miller.
Rumors began to swirl that Grande reportedly offered to cover funeral expenses for victims in need.
A website called “Ariana Updates”, which is dedicated to keeping the popstar’s fans current and updated on all of her moves, shared a post, “News on Ariana: Ariana has reached out to the families who’s loves ones died last night….she is gonna pay for the funerals!”
This has not been confirmed by neither the singer nor her management team, and the unverified site is fan-created and ran. We only mention this snippet because many publications ran with the news, and some have since adjusted previously published articles.
