Ariana Grande has been seen as a wannabe Illuminati member for years.

Will Morgan points out, from Wikipedia, "The name of Iran (Persia) originates from Persian word Aryānā (Ariana) meaning 'The Land of the Aryans'...".
The Greater Manchester Police Department revised their earlier report of 19, to 22 people were killed and 59 people were injured by an explosion as they were exiting the venue. The GM Police are treating the incident as a terrorist attack.
Police believe the attack was perpetrated by a suicide bomber wearing a backpack, NBC News reports. The incident would mark the worst terrorist attack on U.K. soil since the July 2005 London bombings. Wide spread confirmation of the suicide bomber details held up as the bomber's body was analyzed more overnight.
Witnesses believe the attacker used a nail bomb, and the injuries are consistent with the aftermath of that device, the New York Times reports. A nail bomb was also detonated earlier in the day at a Bangkok military hospital, an incident that result in 24 injuries.
A "bang" was heard at approximately 10:35 p.m. London time, around the same time Grande played her last song and people began exiting the venue. Universal Music representative Joseph Carrozza told Rolling Stone the pop star is "okay."
