AceShowbiz - Taylor Swift has expressed her sympathy on Twitter following the Manchester bombing that hit Ariana Grande's concert, but she reportedly made a bigger gesture to show her support for her fellow singer. Rumor has it, the "Shake It Off" hitmaker sent one of her private jets to pick up Ariana and her mom Joan in London.
Ariana was indeed seen arriving in Florida in a private jet on Tuesday afternoon, May 23 after the deadly explosion on Monday night at the Manchester Arena, where she had performed. She was greeted by her boyfriend Mac Miller as soon as she exited the private jet.
However, sources tell TMZ that Taylor wasn't involved in the flight that got Ariana back to the U.S. It's reportedly Ariana's tour promoter Live Nation and her manager Scooter Braun who split the private jet bill, instead.
Taylor, meanwhile, was one of celebrities who paid tribute to the victims of the bombing. "My thoughts, prayers and tears for all those affected by the Manchester tragedy tonight. I'm sending all my love," she tweeted.
My thoughts, prayers and tears for all those affected by the Manchester tragedy tonight. I'm sending all my love.
