Justin Bieber remembered his late friend Christina Grimmie during his concert at MTS Centre on Saturday night (June 11) in Winnipeg, Canada.

The 22-year-old singer was laying down on stage and belting out his song “Purpose” when he got choked up and said, “Grimmie, can you hear me?”

Justin met Christina years ago and she was really close to his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez.

In fact, Selena‘s stepfather Brian was Christina‘s manager.
