Tragedy has struck the music scene once again. Just weeks after a fatal shooting took place at T.I's concert in New York City, another tragic event has taken place at a live show and as reported, the victim is the star herself. Former 'The Voice' singer and contestant Christina Grimmie was shot dead at her own concert in Orlando, Florida.
The 22-year old was signing autographs for her fans at a meet and greet when a man approached the singer and opened fire, and then shot himself dead. Grimmie was taken to a nearby hospital but sadly died from her injuries later that night. News of her death made headlines on social media as fans and celebrities have been expressing their grief and sadness over the young star's shocking death. 'The Voice' coach Adam Levine posted a picture on Instagram of himself and Christina with the caption "I'm sad, shocked and confused. We love you so much Grimmie. This just isn't fair."
This has happened far too many times now and in the wake of the gun violence debate, people are pleading for guns to be banned, especially after disturbing events like these occur. So what will it take to put an end to these senseless acts of violence? Another random shooting? Or perhaps a deadly massacre? Nonetheless, one thing is for sure; the longer we wait, the more innocent lives will be taken away.
