Christina Grimmie Was Left Out of Grammys In Memoriam & Fans Are Not Happy
When the 2017 Grammy Awards shared their In Memoriam tribute to all the musicians we’ve lost in the past year, they forgot someone — Christina Grimmie.
The young singer was shot and killed during a fan meet and greet this past June and when fans didn’t see her mentioned in the tribute, they were not happy.
“Thanks #GRAMMYs for continuously being a disappointment…. I figured Christina Grimmie would’ve alreast gotten mentioned,” one fan wrote.
Another added, “I cant believe that the #GRAMMYs snubbed Christina Grimmie in the in memoriam reel. Im so disappointed that they forgot her. RIP Christina.”
Fellow YouTubers and country artists Megan & Liz also spoke out about missing Christina in the tribute.
I'm genuinely hurt that @TheRealGrimmie was not a part of that tribute. ???? #GRAMMYs

Did I blink or did the entire industry really completely ignore Christina Grimmie. She was not in ANY memoriam all year long.

Christina Grimmie should have been mentioned in the In Memoriam tribute. She was an amazing talent that left too soon. #GRAMMYs

This is becoming the suckiest pattern. I wish someone would do her well and give her the credit she so well deserved. #GrammyForGrimmie

Christina Grimmie was literally robbed of her moment of winning a Grammy. We all know it was supposed to happen & it's a damn shame. ????
