AceShowbiz - Harry Styles honored the people killed and injured in Manchester bombing outside Ariana Grande's concert. The One Direction star halted his concert in Mexico and asked his fans to join him in a moment of silence to pay tribute to the victims and their families.
"Thank you so much for being here tonight," he began. "I know a lot of you have flown a long way. I really appreciate you being here. When I booked this show, I wanted to celebrate with you guys. I've played some of my favorite shows in Mexico, and it felt right to come and celebrate with you, but tonight doesn't feel like a night to celebrate."
"Last night, there was a tragedy in my hometown of Manchester, and I have been left with a hole in my heart. I went to my first show in the arena, and I've had some of the best experiences of my life playing in Manchester. We have a choice, every single day that we wake up, of what we can put into the world, and I ask you to please choose love every single day."
The British singer also sent prayers and condolence on Twitter. "I'm heartbroken over what happened in Manchester tonight. Sending love to everyone involved," so he wrote.
