Grande, Bieber to sing for Manchester victims

Los Angeles, May 31
Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber and Katy Perry will headline a star-studded concert in Manchester, England, on Sunday to benefit victims of the suicide bombing at Grande’s May 22 concert there, organisers announced on Tuesday.
American artistes Miley Cyrus, Pharrell Williams and Usher will also perform at the June 4 concert, along with Britain’s Coldplay, One Direction singer Niall Horan and the Manchester-based band Take That. The benefit will take place at the Old Trafford cricket ground. Proceeds will benefit victims of last week’s suicide bombing at Grande’s show at another venue in the northern English city, the Manchester Arena.
All proceeds from Sunday’s “One Love Manchester” concert will go to the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund which was set up by the Manchester City Council in partnership with the British Red Cross.
The fund has already raised more than 5 million pounds ($6.4 million), organisers say. Grande, 23, is offering free tickets to the charity concert to all of those who were at her Manchester show on May 22.
Grande was unharmed in the suicide bombing that injured over 100 but she later cancelled several concerts scheduled in London and Europe through June 5.
