Influencer Karen Sofía Quiroz Ramírez, 25, died last week following a motorcycle accident in Colombia.
When paramedics arrived at the scene they tried to revive her but she was already dead, according to Transport Official Jahir Andrés Castellanos Prada.
The budding star was known for wearing bra tops and leaving her protective jacket at home when she rode and she also filmed herself driving hands free on her bike during a wild video.
The cause of death has yet to be revealed but it is likely head trauma.
The leading cause of death in motorcycle accidents is head trauma, even with a helmet, though severe blunt force trauma to the torso is also a major cause of death due to internal organ damage.
Authorities have said that they are still investigating the crash.
So far Andres has said that the young star tried to pass between two vehicles but lost control and collided with a car on one side before falling under the wheels of a lorry on the other side.

She passed away near the town of Floridablanca, located north of Bogotá, Colombia, on Wednesday.
The Instagram star seems to have predicted the accident hours before it happened.
She posted that she had lost the glasses she usually wore on bike rides and was worried, as reported by NeedToKnow.
The star, who uses the handle sofia_quiroz10, said in the chilling social media post: ‘I hope I don’t crash because I’m driving without my glasses.’
Transport official Prada told Daily Mail last week: ‘The most likely hypothesis for the accident is that the motorcyclist was travelling between two vehicles.
‘But this situation will be subject to an investigation. The Prosecutor’s Office will proceed to clearly and precisely determine the cause of this fatal traffic accident.
‘[We will] carry out the corresponding investigations, conduct the respective interviews with witnesses analyze the CCTV footage and determine if there was any type of responsibility on the part of the other drivers involved.’
Motorcycle fatalities make up a significant portion of total road traffic deaths, with the World Health Organization reporting nearly a quarter of all road deaths globally are motorcyclists.
In the U.S., motorcyclist fatalities reached a new high in 2023 with 6,335 deaths, though this number represents U.S. fatalities and not the global total.
Int his video, the star drove hands free as she made arm signals
She also rode with bra tops on as she left a protective jacket at home

The black-haired beauty had a strong social media presence.
On Instagram, Ramírez could be seen wearing very little as she rode her pink-and-black motorcycle in Colombia.
Often she seemed to forgo a heavy leather motorcycle jacket and instead wear only sports bra, though the move could have been just for photographs.
Motorcyclists should wear heavy jackets to protect themselves from abrasion, impact, and the elements. A good riding jacket is made of durable materials like leather or textile and includes armor to absorb and dissipate the force of an impact in a crash. This protection is vital to prevent serious injuries like broken bones and severe skin damage from road rash.
Sometimes she could be seen driving her Gixxer 150 hands free as she made signs with her arms in videos shared to Instagram.
And she didn’t just pose on her bike. The young star also was photographed often in strappy bikinis that showed off her array of colorful tattoos while in exotic locations.
