Sparkle GMA Artist Center has issued a statement mourning the death of its artist, 19-year-old influencer Emman Atienza, offering condolences to her family.
Her parents, Kim Atienza and Felicia Hung, announced her unexpected passing on Friday morning.
The Atienza family has warned the public against unauthorized activities or solicitations being linked to Emman's passing, clarifying they are not associated with any such endeavors.
This warning came after a fake TikTok post was found soliciting purchases from a "yellow basket" purportedly to support Emman's family.
In a previous Instagram post on September 1, Emman spoke about the pressures of social media and her decision to take a break from TikTok.
She shared that she initially used TikTok as a personal diary and for exposure therapy due to long-standing insecurities about her appearance and personality.
While Emman found community and support from her followers online, she also acknowledged the detrimental impact of online negativity.
