The online community is mourning the tragic death of 21-year-old TikTok star Maurice “Girlalala” Harrison. She was loved for her bright personality, bold style, and fun videos. On November 14, she was shot and killed during a domestic dispute in South Florida. The news has left fans and friends heartbroken.
First responders arrived at a home in Lauderdale Lakes and found Harrison in the front seat of a Tesla with several gunshot wounds. She was rushed to the hospital, but doctors could not save her. Police recovered the weapon and arrested her boyfriend, 25-year-old Shanoyd Whyte Jr. He is now charged with first-degree murder.
Friends shared that the couple had been together for years, but their relationship was often rocky. That night, a simple argument in the car escalated into violence. Investigators are reviewing camera footage that appears to show Harrison trying to get out of the car while Whyte Jr. pushed her back inside. The video has become a key part of the case.
Harrison’s family released a short statement thanking everyone for their prayers. They are already grieving another relative lost to gun violence last year, making the pain even harder to bear. A GoFundMe for her memorial has raised more than $28,000, with services planned for December 6.
Harrison was more than an influencer. She was an artist, hairstylist, and creator with a warm and vibrant presence. Her TikTok updates brought joy to nearly 300,000 followers.
Tributes continue to pour in. Artist JT shared a touching message celebrating Harrison’s energy and reminding others to take violence against transgender and Black women seriously. Fans are filling her pages with love, grief, and disbelief at the loss of someone who brought so much light to their screens.
