Justin Bieber fought back tears while paying tribute to Christina Grimmie during show

Justin Bieber paid tribute to Christina Grimmie during his show in Winnipeg earlier this week.

Bieber lied on the stage wiping away tears while performing his song, “Purpose.” He then sang, “Grimmie can you hear me?”

Bieber knew the “Voice” contestant through his ex, Selena Gomez who was good friends with Grimmie.

Christina was shot and killed after her performance in Orlando last Friday.
