    A day after Canadian actor Saint Von Colucci died due to post-plastic surgery complications in his attempt to look like K-pop star Jimin from boy band BTS, another star passed away following an aesthetic procedure.

    Christina Ashten Gourkani aka Ashten G, OnlyFans star who is a Kim Kardashian lookalike, died of cardiac arrest in the hospital while she was recovering from a plastic surgery.

    The 34-year-old Instagram model, who is based in California and enjoyed a fan following of over 618K on the photo sharing platform, died last Thursday. Gourkani's funeral is scheduled to take place next week while her family has created a GoFundMe page to raise money for it.

    “It is with deep sorrow and an [immensely] heavy broken heart that we have to share the most shattering, unfortunate and unexpected passing of our beautiful beloved daughter and sister Christina Ashten Gourkani,” her family wrote on the GoFundMe page.

    The family received a frantic call from another family member who was screaming and crying on the other end and saying "Ashten is dying... Ashten is dying.." the model's family said in a statement.

    Gourkani's sudden passing post surgery is currently being investigated as a homicide related to a medical procedure that took a turn and killed her.

    The OnlyFans' model's family called Gourkani a "kind of person that would kneel down and talk to children at eye level" who searched for the lonely person in the corner and made them feel special.
    As of Thursday, the family has so far raised $4,583 of the $40,000 goal.

    “Ashten's spirit is a light that will forever carry on to her loved ones around her and those that she has left behind,” the family added.

    Apart from Instagram and OnlyFans, Gourkani also cosplayed different fictional characters.

    Sudden Passing Of Colucci
    The shocking news of Gourkani's sudden demise comes a day after the Canadian star's death. Colucci, a big superfan of Jimin, suffered complications after undergoing 12 cosmetic surgeries to look like his favourite K-pop star.
