Watch Ariana Grande’s “One Love Manchester” Benefit Concert In Full

Today is Ariana Grande’s benefit concert for the victims and families affected by the suicide bombing that killed 22 people at her Manchester Arena show last month. “One Love Manchester” featured performances from Coldplay, Justin Bieber, Pharrell, Liam Gallagher, Miley Cyrus, and others. Watch the concert in its entirety below. During the show, Grande addressed the crowd with heart-felt words. “Manchester, I wanna thank you so much for coming together and being so loving and strong,” she said. “I love you guys so much and I think the love and unity you’re displaying is the medicine this world needs right now.” As Billboard points out, the benefit concert raised over $3 million for the British Red Cross, adding to the Manchester Emergency Fund’s $9 million to total over $12 million.

Throughout the show, Grande and Victoria Monet played their collaborative song “Better Days,” and Miley Cyrus enlisted Grande to cover Crowded House’s “Don’t Dream It’s Over.” Grande also joined the Black Eyed Peas for “Where is the Love?” and the Parrs Wood High School Choir for a touching rendition of “My Everything.” Fighting back tears, Grande invited Mac Miller to the stage, and they performed “The Way” and “Dang!”

The end of the show saw Grande sing “One Last Time” while the other performers danced behind her. Then, she closed with a cover of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” Find those last two performances around the 3:12:00 mark. Grande issued a full statement about the attack last Friday. “We will not quit or operate in fear. We won’t let this divide us. We won’t let hate win,” she wrote.

Grande has suspended her tour through early June. Several other artists, including KISS and Blondie, have cancelled or postponed upcoming shows in the UK. Others, like Liam Gallagher, have dedicated their own shows to benefit the Manchester victims.
