Charlie Puth is the latest star to express grief over the loss of Christina Grimmie, a former contestant on “The Voice” who died early Saturday morning after being shot while signing autographs for fans in Orlando, Florida, the previous night.
On Saturday, Puth took a moment during his show in Wantagh, New York, to address his friend’s death. He went on to dedicate his performance of “See You Again” to the 22-year-old singer.
“I was reading the news last night and heard that my good friend Christina Grimmie was killed, and I want to dedicate this song to her tonight,” he said to the crowd. “I’ve been upset about this all day, mainly because I just never got to say what I wanted to say to her, and I feel like this song perfectly captures that.”
Other stars, including Pharrell Williams, Usher and Adam Levine, also shared heartfelt messages about Grimmie on Twitter.
