These Photos Of Ariana “Following The Manchester Attack” Have Been Found To Be Fake
She had performed her Dangerous Woman concert shortly before the attack took place.
In the hysteria following last night’s fatal attack on the Manchester Arena, photos have been circulating online claiming to show Ariana Grande covered in blood.
The pop star had just finished performing her Dangerous Woman concert when a lone suicide bomber detonated a device killing 22 people, including children and teens.
Ariana was uninjured in the explosion, as confirmed by her management team, and the photos circulating online are actually behind-the-scenes shots from a film set in 2015.
This case of mistaken information reminds us to be so careful when sharing and retweeting things online. It’s so important to only trust verified news sources, particularly at times like these when families are still desperately searching for loved ones.
Anyone with concerns for Irish friends or family who may be caught up in the events taking place in Manchester can contact the Irish Embassy there on 02072352171, or call the Dublin line on +353-1-4082000.
