Ariana Grande sorry for UK concert blasts



US pop singer Ariana Grande took to social media to apologize for the deadly bombing incident in Manchester, England where 19 concertgoers were killed while 50 others were hurt last Monday night.

"Broken. From the bottom of my heart, i am so so sorry. i don't have words," said Grande in a tweet following the explosions.

"Ariana is OK. We are further investigating what happened," Joseph Carozza, Grande's publicist with Republic Records, told the LA Times.

Universal Music Group said in a statement on Facebook: "We are deeply saddened to learn of tonight's devastating event in Manchester. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by this tragedy."


The incident happened following Grande's performance at the Manchester Arena as concert goers were leaving the venue, around 10:30 p.m. local time, CNN International said.

The 23-year-old singer was in town performing the first of three concerts in the UK. Her next concert was to take place on May 25 at the O2 Arena in London.

Grande is also scheduled to perform in the Philippines in August later this year as part of her "Dangerous Woman" World Tour. - ROBERT REQUINTINA
