Christina Victoria Grimmie (March 12, 1994 - June 10, 2016) was an American singer and YouTuber.Grimmie's father took notice of her singing talent when she was 6, and she started playing piano at age 10. She later began posting videos to YouTube in 2009, when she was 15, under the name zeldaxlove64. Almost 100 of her videos were covers of popular songs, with her cover of "Party in the USA" being the first to gain notable recognition. As her popularity grew, she was discovered in 2011 by Selena Gomez's parents, who soon became her managers, with Gomez additionally becoming her mentor as well as a close friend.Grimmie also wrote her own songs, with her debut EP Find Me and debut album With You both fully consisting of original music. She gained further prominence in 2014 after appearing on the sixth season of The Voice, where she was coached by Adam Levine and placed third. (Host Carson Daly would later admit he was "shocked" she didn't actually win.)Following her appearance on the show, Levine and Lil Wayne expressed interest in signing Grimmie to their respective labels (222 Records and Young Money Entertainment), but she ended up signing with Island Records, although she announced less than a year later that she had been dropped. From there, her career continued through new single releases leading to the release of her second EP, Side A, in 2016. That year, she also made her first film appearance in the romantic comedy The Matchbreaker — although the film's release unfortunately ended up being posthumous.On June 10, 2016, Grimmie was murdered by an assailant at a meet-and-greet in Orlando, FL, who shortly afterwards committed suicide. Several official posthumous works have been released as approved by her family, such as Side B (the follow-up to Side A that she had been working on at the time of her death) and her second album All Is Vanity. In 2019, her backing band, including her older brother Marcus, formed the group The Similar.Discography: 2011 - Find Me (EP) 2013 - With Love 2014 - The Complete Season 6 Recordings 2016 - Side A (EP) 2017 - Side B (EP) 2017 - All Is Vanity Non-album singles note The 2014/15 singles were meant for her unreleased sophomore album, Cliche : 2014: "Must Be Love" 2015: "Cliché" 2015: "Stay With Me" 2015: "Shrug" 2018: "Little Girl" 2019: "Hold Your Head Up" | |

Posthumous Popularity Potential: While having a formidable career in her own right post-The Voice as well as a massive YouTube following, she didn't become a household name until she was murdered. Ticket sales for her movie, The Matchbreaker, and sales for her EP Side B, after her death are notable examples. | |
