The singer had previously shared her plans to hold a concert to raise funds for the victims of last week's terror attack in which a suicide bomber attacked during the singer's Manchester concert and killed 22 people.

"My heart, prayers and condolences are with the victims of the Manchester Attack and their loved ones. There is nothing I or anyone can do to take away the pain you are feeling or to make this better. However, I extend my hand and heart and everything I possibly can give to you and yours, should you want or need my help in any way," she said in a letter to fans on Twitter.

"Music is meant to heal us, to bring us together, to make us happy. So that is what it will continue to do for us. We will continue to honour the ones we lost, their loved ones, my fans and all affected by this tragedy. They will be on my mind and in my heart everyday and I will think of them with everything I do for the rest of my life."

All net ticket proceeds from the show will go to the We Love Manchester emergency fund. General admission tickets will go on sale through Ticketmaster on Thursday, June 1 at 10 a.m., and fans who were at the Manchester show can attend the benefit for free if they register by 4 p.m. on May 31.
