Nine days after a series of coordinated terror attacks left 130 people dead across Paris, including 89 at Le Bataclan music venue, Jared Leto and Celine Dion honored the victims with a stirring tribute during Sunday's American Music Awards.
Leto, whose band 30 Seconds to Mars played at Le Bataclan this year, called the attacks a "horrific and senseless tragedy."
"Like some of you here, we had friends and former colleagues there that night," Leto said, before mentioning Thomas Ayad, the Mercury Music Group/Universal marketing manager killed at Le Bataclan.
Leto went on to say "the entire world matters and peace is possible," before making reference to the controversy about Syrian refugees entering the United States.
