Singer Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber, Demi Lovato, Kim Kardashian and Kendall Jenner are among the Hollywood celebrities, who have expressed sadness over a series of coordinated terror attacks in Paris, France, leaving at least 120 killed.
The attacks are said to be the deadliest violence to strike France since World War II.

Grande did not only pray for people in Paris but also for those in Japan, as it was recently struck by small tsunami due to magnitude-7 earthquake.
"What a scary, chaotic day on earth. My heart is with everyone in Paris and Japan," she wrote on Twitter. "Please stay safe, my loves. You're in my heart."
Kardashian, meanwhile, posted on Twitter and Instagram an illustration of iconic Eiffel tower which resembled symbol of peace. Alongside the picture, she put the hashtag #PrayForParis.
Bieber, who just finished his first show following the release of his album "Purpose" tweeted, "Had a great first show but just heard about what happened in Paris. Thoughts and prayers with everyone #PrayForParis." On another tweet, he wrote the hashtag #PrayForJapan.

Meanwhile, Beyonce Knowles posted a picture with the words, "Praying for Paris."
Jenner wrote on Twitter a series of hashtags including #PrayForLebanon, #PrayForBaghdad, #PrayForJapan, #PrayForParis and #PrayForMexico.
Actor Jared Leto opted to post on Instagram a picture of the flag of France. "Our hearts to you in Paris #vivelafrance," read the caption.
"Thoughts and prayers for those people involved in the situation that has occurred in Paris this evening... Very sad," tweeted One Direction star Niall Horan.
