Celebrities and politicians around the world are reaching out to express their horror at the deadly suspected terror attack at Ariana Grande's Manchester concert on Monday which has left at least 22 people dead and 59 others injured.

The singer herself has reportedly suspended the European leg of her world tour for the time being, with TMZ reporting that she was "inconsolable" and "in hysterics" when she learned of the casualties following the explosion, which police are treating as a suspected terror attack.

Grande posted the tweet below early this morning following the attack, saying that she was "broken."
