During her show in Buenos Aires, Argentina this week, Ariana Grande performed "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," ending the number by looking skyward, blowing a kiss and saying "Happy birthday, Saffie." The special birthday wishes were for Saffie Roussos, the youngest concertgoer killed in the recent Manchester terrorist attack. The Grande fan would have turned nine years old this week.
In addition, the pop star dedicated an Instagram post to Roussos on Wednesday night, writing: "What's newwwww, Buenos Aires, Argentina, I love you. Saffie, we're ?? of you, baby." Check out video of the performance, as well as the Instagram post below:
