Girl group Viviz skipped its Grammys Museum interview and red carpet appearance scheduled for Sunday in Las Vegas.

“Hello, this is BPM. Due to the artists’ current conditions, we regretfully inform you that Viviz will not be participating in the Grammys Museum interview or scheduled red carpet appearance,” reads a statement released by the girl group’s agency Big Planet Made Entertainment.

Members SinB and Umji also canceled their fan meet-and-greet event. Only Eunha attended the event.

The girl group, however, did not cancel its performance at the We Bridge Music Festival & Expo on Saturday, “out of love and respect to the fans who are attending,” according to the agency.

Viviz member SinB is known to have had a close relationship with Moonbin from boy band Astro who passed away last week.

We Bridge Music Festival & Expo is a three-day event featuring a two-day K-pop festival. Held on April 21 and 22 in Las Vegas, the two-day festival featured boy bands OneUS, Monsta X, CIX, Enhypen and girl group Dreamcatcher, among others.
