ORLANDO (CBSMiami/AP) — A memorial will be held Friday for "The Voice" singer Christina Grimmie who was shot and killed last week as she signed autographs after a show in Orlando.

Services for Grimmie, 22, are being held in Medford, New Jersey. Grimmie lived in nearby Evesham Township, a small community about 20 miles from Philadelphia, before moving to Los Angeles in 2012.

The YouTube star was widely known from her appearances on NBC's "The Voice" two years ago.

The man who shot Grimmie fatally shot himself after being tackled by her brother.
