Justin Bieber Cries for Christina Grimmie During Concert — ‘Grimmie, Can You Hear Me?”

Justin Bieber, who called off meet and greets on tour due to a deranged fan, is feeling for his late friend Christina Grimmie.

From Us:

The YouTube sensation was shot and killed by 27-year-old Kevin James Loibl on Friday, June 10. She was signing autographs at a meet-and-greet following her show at the Plaza Live theater in Orlando when Loibl, who was armed with two handguns, ammunition and a large hunting knife, fired shots at Grimmie. Her older brother, Marcus Grimmie, quickly tackled the gunman, who then shot and killed himself. Orlando police are calling Loibl a “deranged fan.”

The world is a fucking mess right now. Between Adele’s tribute to the victims of the Orlando shooting and this heartfelt tribute from Bieber to Christina Grimmie, everyone is hurting and everything is a disaster.

While the 22-year-old pop star was performing “Purpose,” he lay down on the ground and called out, “Grimmie, can you hear me?” He wiped tears from his eyes with the back of his arm before jumping back up to continue his performance.

The “Love Yourself” crooner reportedly became close with Grimmie, 22, while she was touring with his ex Selena Gomez, according to Seventeen.

RIP Christina Grimmie.
