We’re still buzzing from last night’s emotional One Love Manchester concert—and it looks like these celebs are too.
Sunday’s three-hour benefit concert, organized by Ariana Grande’s team to support those affected by the Manchester terror attack, took on a whole new meaning in the wake of the violence that unfolded on the streets of London the night before.
Grande was joined on stage by an all-star lineup of artists including Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Niall Horan, Pharrell Williams, Little Mix, Coldplay, The Black Eyed Peas, Take That, Robbie Williams, Marcus Mumford, Imogen Heap, Victoria Monét and others, with video messages from U2, Stevie Wonder and David Beckham. The student choir from Greater Manchester’s Parrs Wood High School brought down the house with its rendition of Grande’s “My Everything.”
While all eyes were on the stage, many celebs took the time to post some very heartfelt Instagrams. Here’s a round-up of our favourites.
