Other musicians, such as Harry Styles, Nicki Minaj, Taylor Swift and Liam Gallagher, have also paid tribute to those affected by the Manchester attack.
The attack was carried out by a lone suicide bomber, according to Greater Manchester Police. Chief constable Ian Hopkins said that they do not know if the bomber “acted alone or was part of a wider network”. The attacker died at the scene, after detonating the improvised explosive device that he carried.
