The 46-year-old No Doubt front woman and Voice mentor wasn’t on the show when the late 22-year-old singer placed third in season six, but that didn’t lessen the effect of her loss.

“I am so shaken by what happened to @TheRealGrimmie sending prayers of Peace to her family gx,” Gwen tweeted.

Christina was shot and killed by Kevin James Loibl during a meet-and-greet with fans after her concert at The Plaza Live on Friday night (June 10) in Orlando, Fla.

Our thoughts are still with Christina‘s loved ones during this time.

Selena Gomez is overwhelmed with emotion in this new video from her Revival Tour concert at American Airlines Arena on Saturday night (June 11) in Miami, Fla.

The singer dedicated a song to her longtime friend Christina Grimmie, who tragically died the night before from a violent shooting at her meet-and-greet.

“One thing about Christina and her family is that she holds her faith so closely to her,” Selena told the crowd. “I think it’s not about a religion and it’s not about good deeds. I think she just had faith and I don’t really understand how this really happened, but I would like to dedicate this song to her.”

A concert goer is opening up about witnessing the fatal shooting of singer Christina Grimmie on Friday (June 10) in Orlando, Fla.

Destiny Rivera spoke to People and claimed she stood in line behind identified shooter Kevin James Loibl at the meet and greet, even making eye contact.

She noted that he “didn’t look like he was up for a conversation,” and looked “a little bit nervous.”

When it was Kevin’s turn to meet Christina, she greeted him with “her arms open wide ready to greet him, as she would any of her other friends with such enthusiasm,” just before he opened fire.

Destiny also noted that security didn’t check everyone’s bags.

“Our other friend actually did have a bag and, just ordinary force of habit, was unzipping her bag and getting ready to show him, and he was like, ‘no, you’re fine, you’re good. Just go,’ ” she said.

Destiny posted a statement to Facebook after the incident thanking Christina’s brother Mark for heroically tackling the shooter.

Mark Grimmie has broken his silence about tragically losing his sister, Christina after the deadly shooting in Orlando.

He took to his personal Facebook, sharing his feelings after everything that happened and remembered Christina fondly.

“Christina was more than my sister,” he wrote (via People). “She was a partner in life. A superstar. A goofball. Introverted. And a friend to everyone. Genuinely.”

Mark added, “But above all…she was my baby sister. She loved the Lord and her family and was always there for me and I honestly don’t know what ill do without her.”

The man who killed singer Christina Grimmie has been identified as 27-year-old Kevin James Loibl and the Orlando Police have released his picture.

“Man who shot and killed Christina Grimmie @TheRealGrimmie is Kevin James Loibl. DOB 03/10/1989,” the police department tweeted.

The name of the killer was initially withheld while authorities investigated the murder. Kevin shot Christina after her concert on Friday night (June 10) and he killed himself after he was tackled by the singer’s brother.

They did nothing but love her and support her as family the best they knew how, the only worry I want them to have at this point is that of recovery.”
