Details: TikTok star Natasha Allen passes
The fundraiser revealed that Natasha died on August 22, following her five-year battle cancer. The young influencer, known for her inspiring content and authenticity on TikTok and Instagram, had openly documented her health struggles, drawing support from thousands of followers across social media.
In an April TikTok, Natasha shared that she was diagnosed in 2020 with stage 3 synovial sarcoma. The disease is a rare, slow‑growing cancer of the soft tissues, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Doctors discovered a tumor in her knee. Following several rounds of chemotherapy, radiation and tumor removal surgeries, she went into remission the next year.
Months later, however, CT scans revealed the cancer had returned and spread to her lungs, advancing to stage 4. By late 2021, Natasha had undergone multiple treatments. She said helped “stabilize” and “shrink” some tumors, though new growths continued to appear in other parts of her lungs.
“Synovial sarcoma is so under‑researched that the numbers change all the time,” she explained in the video. “Officially, I have a 15 percent chance of being alive for five years after being diagnosed with stage 4. Me, however, I’m gonna be different. I’m putting that out in the universe.”
Her family expressed gratitude to supporters, noting that donations have helped ease medical costs and now assist with funeral arrangements.

GoFundMe Raises Thousands in Support
