Christina Grimmie: Never-Before-Seen Music Videos To Be Released

As fans continue to mourn the loss of a young talent, plans are underway to keep her legacy alive.



Christina Grimmie’s team announced on June 25th that four brand new music videos from the late singer will be released starting August 11th.


Grimmie recorded each music video prior to her tour, which was tragically cut short when she was murdered by an obsessed fan in Orlando on June 10th.


The team tweeted the press release, billing the videos as a mini-series that is part of “a visual celebration of Side A,” titled The Ballad of Jessica Blue.


“Christina shot these videos back in February with about six hours of choreography and four days of filming before she left for the ‘WildFire’ tour,” the press release read.


“Everyone worked so hard on this project putting in extra long days on set to ensure we got the best quality project we could for the minimal budget we had. I couldn’t be more proud of her and everyone involved for the labor of love that was put into this project.”

The four videos – “Snow White,” “Anybody’s You,” “Deception,” and “Without Him”- each tell a story about Blue’s “journey to find her voice and her path in life only to find they are one in the same.


The first video, “Snow White,” will premiere exclusively on Billboard on August 11th, as well as on Grimmie’s social media pages (including YouTube).


Grimmie’s autopsy report was finalized and released on July 22nd, confirming that the singer’s cause of death was gun shot wounds to the head and chest. 


The New Jersey native’s older brother, Marcus tackled the gunman, Kevin Loibl to the ground before Loibl turned the gun on himself.



Grimmie was rushed to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead.


“I don’t have anything to say, I don’t have words still and it’s a good and bad thing,” Marcus told people at his sister’s memorial in June.


“All I’m going to say is thank God for the mark that she left on this world. Thanks mom and dad I know it’s going to be really tough for us to move forward.”
