Celine Dion paid a beautiful tribute to victims of the Manchester attack during one of her concerts earlier this week. The My Heart Will Go On singer spoke to the audience about the attack before requesting that everyone in the audience join hands and hold them up to "show [their] love" to Manchester during this tragic time. At the beginning on the concert, the mum-of-three said: "I hope you don't mind if I say a few serious words to all of you tonight… I want you to have a great time with us and we're going to do that. But first I want to send our thoughts, and prayers, to all of the innocent people in Manchester who have suffered following the horrific attack at Ariana Grande's concert."

She continued: "Just last night and many of them young children and really all they wanted to do was to have some fun and go to a concert and listen to some music so just like, pretty much what we're doing tonight actually. What happened last night makes no sense whatsoever. We live in different times and we need to love each other more than ever. We need to support each other more than ever as well. What do you say? We show our love to all of those in Manchester tonight, what do you think about that?"
