A date that fans are not ready to forget. Two weeks after the Manchester bombing that directly affected its audience, Ariana Grande took courage last night to resume the course of its world tour inside the AccorHotels Arena in Paris . Because yes, with the exception of the charity concert One Love Manchester that she organized last Sunday , the American singer had until now fixed all the dates of the Dangerous Woman Tour.

Enhanced security forces Ariana Grande to come, it does not laugh when we approach the AccorHotels Arena in the early evening. It is now the price to pay for a good time in safety. If we miss the first part assured by Victoria Monet (to find on the very cool “Better Days” ), we arrive on the other hand right at the right time for the count that separates us from the arrival of the star on stage. The pressure is strong, the emotion is palpable in the room . If everyone is there to have fun, it is difficult to disregard the recent drama. And yet, it is with “Be Alright” that Ariana Grande appears a little after 9 pm, wearing her mythical ponytail and ” A very lolita outfit as usual. A premonitory title that is reassuring: everything will be fine . With a smile on her lips, Ariana Grande starts the show carried by the cries of love of a few thousand fans.
Taking all the tracks from her third album Dangerous Woman ( “Everyday” , “Bad Decisions” , “Let Me Love You” , “Touch It” , “Leave Me Lonely” …), Ariana Grande does not hesitate To put forward all the capacities of his voice live, without ever doing too much.

If the first songs are connected in a rather mechanical way, a break occurs when “One Last Time” rings in the room. “This one is for my 22 angels,” says Ariana Grande subtly before letting a few tears run down her cheeks. The Parisian public, struggling to regain the title, undertook to support it with great emotion.
As during the Bruno Mars concert a few days before , the magic prevails at several times of the Dangerous Woman Tour: we love the “Side To Side” / “Bang Bang” (without Jessie J, oops) / “Greedy” which transforms the arena into a real dance floor. Feeling love and hugging when Ariana picks up “Moonlight” before opting for My Everything ( “Love Me Harder” and “Break Free” ). Another moment of grace: “Sometimes” and “Thinking Bout You” that the most fans of ” Between us will know by heart. Be it with parents, very young children, teenagers, gays, straight people of all colors … Our hearts beat the tubes of Ariana Grande in perfect unity . And this is perhaps the most important during this hour of thirty music.
The show continues with a surprise appearance of Mac Miller, the boyfriend of the star, who brings with him the hit “The Way” and then “Dang!” . No need to be in the front row to read Ariana’s face of joy and love. Changing the atmosphere with her cover of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” she sang a few days ago in Manchester. The silence is total in the room. The concert ended shortly afterwards in the euphoria with the tubes “Problem” , “Into You” and “Dangerous Woman” , one is conquered . This date in Paris was decisive for Ariana Grande: She could have made long speeches and readjusted the show after the attack, but none of that. Ariana Grande has subtly distilled her emotions and messages, while turning the page and deciding to move forward. At melty we are sure with it: “So do not you worry ’bout a thing, we’re gonna be alright”.
