Ariana Grande Personally Chose Montreal For Her Canadian Tour Stop: "The Fans Are Just So Loving and Warm"

On the cultural radio segment Le Québec maintenant, the singer told journalist Henry Arnaud that she chose Montreal over Toronto as it is one of her favourite cities. During the first of her three Canadian concerts at Centre Bell last night (July 28), she debuted her upcoming single "Petal" live.

In a recent episode of the cultural radio segment Le Québec maintentant on CHMP-FM (98.5 FM), Hollywood-based journalist Henry Arnaud, who is also an on-air personality for the Quebec French-language network TVA, revealed that the pop star specifically chose Montreal as the sole Canadian stop for her Eternal Sunshine tour, over Toronto.
