Instagram sensation Lyric Chanel has lost her battle with cancer.
She had been fighting brain cancer and anaplastic ependymoma.
In Nov. 2020, Lyric Chanel underwent surgery at the Texas Medical Center to remove a tumor, according to her GoFundMe page. Unfortunately, the tumor grew back and spread to various parts of her brain just two months later. That’s when doctors gave her the grim news there was nothing else they could do.
The young social media star was acknowledged and supported by celebrities such as Beyonce and rapper Cardi B for her strength, perseverance and undeniable optimism during her fight with cancer. She also developed a special bond with Houston rapper Trae Tha Truth, who she affectionately called her uncle.
Lyric and her family grew her social media presence by documenting the good and bad experiences she endured as a child battling a chronic illness. She also shared her love for fashion and style with her followers.
