The digital world mourns the untimely passing of Dominican influencer Carol Acosta, affectionately known as “Killadamente.” At just 27, Killadamente inspired millions with her advocacy for self-love, body positivity, and empowerment, especially among Latino women.
Killadamente’s sister announced her death on Instagram, expressing heartbreak and gratitude for Carol’s impactful life. The family also launched a GoFundMe campaign to cover funeral costs and support her two young children, emphasizing the depth of the loss felt by her loved ones and her 6.5 million followers.
Famed for her catchphrase, “#meamoynomeimporta” (I love myself, and I don’t care), Killadamente became a beacon of positivity. Her work extended beyond social media, touching lives through her activism against domestic violence and bullying. Her influence was even immortalized on a Times Square billboard promoting self-love.
While the exact cause of her death remains unconfirmed, reports suggest she may have experienced a tragic cardiorespiratory arrest after choking during a meal. An autopsy is expected to provide clarity.
The influencer’s sudden passing has left a void in the hearts of her followers and peers. Fellow creator Príncipe Karim remembered her as vibrant, loving, and full of life, saying, “You were an amazing woman, friend, mother, daughter, and sister. Peace to your soul and comfort to your loved ones.”
As fans, friends, and family rally together to honor her memory, the GoFundMe campaign has raised nearly $10,000 of its $15,000 goal. Killadamente’s legacy of love and resilience will undoubtedly continue to inspire those who knew her story.
