Ariana Grande named honorary citizen of Manchester

Manchester just showed Ariana Grande some serious love. On Wednesday, the Manchester city council voted unanimously to make Grande an honory citizen. “It would have been understandable if [Grande] had never wanted to see this place again. But she determined she would not perform again until she had returned to Manchester… [That’s why] I propose Ariana Grande is made the first honorary citizen of the city of Manchester." Council leader Richard Leese The honor comes after Grande held the 'One Love Manchester' benefit concert a week after an attack on the MEN arena where she performed in May. 22 people lost their lives, including children. The benefit concert was a tribute to the victims and raised funds for those affected.
