Ariana Grande turns down Damehood in honour of Manchester attack victims

Pop star Ariana Grande has 'politely' turned down a Damehood in honour of the Manchester terror attack victims and their families. The 25 year, who had quite a troubled past year with bombing at her concert in Manchester, the death of an ex and a broken engagement. But the songstress has stayed strong and come above all that with the released of her chart topping and record breaking single 'Thank You, Next'.

According to reports Ariana Grande refused the Damehood by telling the committee that it is 'too soon' and she is still grieving for those who lost their lives in the attack. Bombing at Ariana's Manchester Arena concert left 22 dead and many injured when a suicide bomber detonated an explosive.

Two weeks after the terrorist attack, Ariana set up the One Love Manchester concert to raise funds for the victims, and got together a number of popular music stars including Katy Perry, Coldplay and Justin Bieber. Ariana raised £17 million for the victims' families, and was praised for her courage and bravery. The songstress also visited the injured fan in hospitals and stood tall through all the tough times.

Since Ariana is a US citizen, her Damehood would have been an honorary one, and Angelina Jolie is another American celebrity to have been bestowed with the honorary Damehood in 2014 for her services to the UK foreign policy and campaign to end sexual violence at war zone. Other celebrities to have declined a Damehood or Knighthood include Danny Boyle, David Bowie and Nigella Lawson among others.
