Singer Ariana Grande has cleared her schedule to be with her ailing grandfather, who is battling cancer, in Florida.
The "Problem" singer flew straight to her native Boca Raton in Florida to be by his side in hospital after performing at Macy's Fourth of July Fireworks Spectacular, July 4, and asked her fans to pray for her 90-year-old Grandpa Grande, reports contactmusic.com.
The 21-year-old singer tweeted, Saturday: "love u grandps i need u please pull thru."
