‘Waking up this morning, I kinda couldn’t fathom doing a show on this day. But.. the longer the day went on I kinda had this feeling of it’s such a privilege I get to do this with you guys and that we have this in a time that…" I just love you so much and I want you to know that you’re safe with me and you’re protected here and you’re safe in this room,’ she told her fans.
