Celine Dion has joined dozens of celebrities in paying tribute to those killed in Manchester's terror attack.

Monday night's suicide bombing, which occurred shortly after Ariana Grande's concert at the Manchester Arena, left 22 people, including children, dead and 119 people injured. 

Celine Dion had a special message for the UK city, and the victims of the attack.

The singer encouraged the audience to hold hands for a moment's silence during her Las Vegas residency show on Tuesday. 

"Come on, everybody, stand up... raise your hands and join them to the person on either side of you, please. Let's stand up for Manchester and show them that we care. We're filming this and we're going to send it across the ocean to those beautiful souls, so let's do that," she said. 

The words "Manchester, we are with you" were also projected on a screen behind her.
