The Voice Singer and Youtube Star shot dead on the same day as the Orlando Shootings

Murder of Christina Grimmie 😢 on same day as Orlando Massacre. 🔫😢

Voice Singer and Youtube Star shot dead in the same city as the Orlando Shootings. (CNN).

Just thought I should share that youtube famous, and the Voice season 6 singer was shot and killed in Orlando by a man carrying two handguns, ammo, and a knife. Christinas brother Marc tackled the assalent and upon being tackled the murderer commitied suicide.

I have followed Grimmie under her youtube channel zeldaxlove🎼 since her early days and this girl was amazing this is so sad. She had the voice of an angel.. 👼

The world lost an amazing person today. Rest in Peace. Christina engaged in alot of philantrophic work the latest to my knowledge was helping abused animals 🐣 recieve the care and love they needed among other things. There is a Gofundme up at the moment to help the family which can be found via a google search and I will not post it hear as I do not know if it breaks the tos..

Thank you for reading and may all our prayer be with all the families of this senesless violence. 🙏

Never heard of her. BUt she obviously had a talent that touched quite a few people. The world needs more of that, not less.

She was shot the day before the club shooting.

Correcting it now thank you.

No she wasn't.

Singer Christina Grimmie, 22, who gained fame as a contestant on television singing contest The Voice, was hit by three shots at a concert in Orlando, Florida, on Friday, June 10, and died on June 11, 2016. She was fired upon as she was signing autographs.

Check out some of her music, ive always been attracted to her because the fame never changed her as she remained the same geeky, shy, video game playing person she began as. Her handle on youtube is ZeldaxLove ☺

I'm not a TV person, but any violent loss of life is sad.

As far as that singer, she was murdered the day before the mass shooting, but ironically she was shot on the same exact street, just about 1.5 miles further north.

This thread on ats will tell you it is NOT the same day. This was the first thread about Christina Grimmie.

I dont have small children so I didnt see the "Voice", but didnt I see a write up about a lesbian relationship or something like that as part of the story line? If so that seems like a connection to the Gay nightclub massacre as well as the street and timing.

From what read she had a boyfriend and during the meet and greet she was hugging fans and went to hug the shooter before she realized he had guns and was shot then her brother tackled him.. Sad.

The voice is a singing based reality/ talent show, it doesn't really have storylines.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. People should also go to the thread you posted. She was a great person..
