Ariana Grande Enjoys Her Return to the UK

Ariana Grande left fans mesmerised during her first full UK show on Saturday night since the Manchester attack, at London’s O2 Arena.

The Ariana-Gig

The US singer sang a total of 24 songs with a neon limousine and a re-creation of The Last Supper. Later, she took to Twitter and thanked everyone for the night.

It was her first proper gig in the UK since a massive bomb blast took place and 22 people were dead after her performance at the Manchester Arena in 2017.

“London, I love u,” declared the 26-year-old singer online. “I’m soooo happy to be back!!!” she added.

Personal loss and back with a bang

She has sung a couple of number including God is a Woman and No Tears Left to Cry – as well as the night-closing title track from her most recent number one LP, Thank U, Next. Even collaborators Social House joined her for a rendition of her new song Boyfriend.

The singer has tweeted regularly about her mental health struggles since the bomb blast took place two years ago and her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller died in that incident.

The Guardian, gave the show three stars out of five, saying the evolving singer delivered “crowd-pleasing anthems of female resilience”, while her fans brought the “high-pitched hysteria”.

“The rabbit ears that were once her trademark are long gone,” wrote Alexi Petridis, but “the high ponytail is more immense than ever and her fans scream every time she flicks it with her fingers.”
Petridis further added, “the most vociferous response is generated by Breathin’, a song about overcoming panic attacks and anxiety.”

The Telegraph, however, gave Grande a five-star review, describing her show as “a night of magic and melancholy from the most exciting young star in pop.”
