Despite the announcement that the rest of her Dangerous Woman Tour will be cancelled after the tragic Manchester attack in London, Ariana Grande decided to push through with her tour for her “Arianators” all over the world.
Last August 21, the award-winning American singer was back in the country for the much-awaited Manila leg of her world tour, two years after her “The Honeymoon Tour.” Ari, as her fans call her, effortlessly belted some of her chart-topping hits even though she said she wasn’t feeling well that day.
She proved that no sickness can stop her from owning the night with a 23-song setlist. Ariana was even cycling while wearing high heels during the performance of her popular collab with Nicki Minaj “Side to Side,”–a “dangerous woman” indeed!

Fans and celebrities, in their best Ariana Grande-inspired OOTDs, filled up the Mall of Asia Arena despite the rain and strict security measures implemented at the venue.
