Christina Grimmie’s sudden passing shocked the world and in the manner that she died was just indescribably horrific. While the world mourns with the Grimmie family and celebrities close to the singer send their sincere condolences, there’s one pop star who couldn’t even hold back her tears on stage.
Selena Gomez is Christina’s long-time friend and during her concert, she dedicated a performance to Christina but couldn’t help but breakdown. Apparently, the two are quite close friends, even their families are. In her concert, Selena told the crowd that The Grimmies always stay true to their faith and that she still can’t understand what happened.
She also tweeted a photo of her with Christine saying “My heart is absolutely broken. I miss you Christina.”
Selena’s stepfather, Brian Teefey, who is also Christine’s manager, is left broken hearted with the tragic event. Right now, he created a Go Fund Me page to seek financial aid for The Grimmie Family. He wrote:
“Words cannot begin to describe the pain I am feeling. I learned this business through the eyes of a father and Christina was like a second daughter to me. All I wanted to do was assist her in achieving her musical dreams while protecting her from the pitfalls associated with the business. I never could have imagined this horrific event being one of the pitfalls needing to be avoided. In Christina’s honor I have created a Go Fund Me page to assist her family in their time of need. As family Mother, Father, and Brother made the ultimate family sacrifice to support Christina on her musical journey. 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. Grimms I love you, and miss you beyond comprehension.”
The love just keeps on pouring in as well….The Go Fund Me effort is doing well. But Christine’s family may have already solved the funeral expenses problem through the help of Adam Levine, Christine’s coach from The Voice.
Marcus Grimmie, brother of Christina, posted on Facebook that Adam called up their mother to say that he will pay for everything.
We send our love and prayers to the entire Grimmie Family.
