Such a tragedy…
As we reported, on Wednesday, a man drove a large vehicle into pedestrian traffic on Westminster Bridge in London. After crashing into a rail, the driver tried to enter Westminster Abbey and stabbed a policeman in the process. He was later shot by police.
As of this writing, five are dead (including policeman Keith Palmer), and over 40 are injured.

Once word spread, several celebs — including Nicki Minaj — sent their thoughts and prayers via social media to the victims of this heinous crime. Sadly, the Super Bass rapper’s message to England was overshadowed when fans criticized her for speaking out about London yet staying silent about the Orlando shooting at Pulse nightclub.
Even with this controversy, other Hollywood stars — including Chelsea Clinton and Ellen DeGeneres — took time to pay tribute to those who lost their lives in Wednesday’s attack.
See what they wrote on Twitter (below):
