The terrorist attack in Nice, France last week left a heavy heart in all of us as we watched the death toll rise right before our eyes. Rihanna was so affected she canceled the Nice show on her ANTI tour she was set to perform the very next day (July 15).
Last night [Tuesday, July 19] in Lyon, France she paid her respects to all of the victims of the attack with an emotional tribute of her hit “Diamonds.” With the colors of the French flag covering the stage, RiRi told her fans, “This next song, I’m going to dedicate to the people in Nice, who have suffered, the people who have been traumatized, the victims and their families.”
She then asked the arena to light the building up using “beautiful flashlights, cell phones, and lighters.” And the crowd did just that.
Take a look at the lovely tribute below:
