Transgender TikTok Star Girlalala Dies at 21 — Her Boyfriend Now Charged with Her Murder

A domestic dispute in the quiet suburbs of South Florida spiraled into a horrifying tragedy that has left an entire online community shattered after the sudden, violent loss of the beloved rising star.

Maurice Harrison, a 21-year-old transgender TikTok sensation adored by nearly 300,000 followers under the name “Girlalala,” was allegedly shot and killed during a domestic dispute with her longtime boyfriend on November 14, 2025, in Lauderdale Lakes, Florida.

Authorities confirmed that 25-year-old Shanoyd Whyte Jr. was swiftly arrested, and now Harrison’s devastated family and friends are crying out for justice.

A Beloved Creator’s Final Moments
Emergency crews in Broward County received a medical call around 7 p.m. on Friday from a home in the 3300 block of Northwest 37th Street. Deputies and fire rescue teams raced to the scene, where they discovered Harrison slumped in the front passenger seat of a Tesla.

She had suffered several gunshot wounds and was rushed to Broward Health Medical Center, where the victim was pronounced dead.

Detectives from the Homicide and Crimes units immediately launched a painstaking investigation, recovering the weapon that night and taking Whyte Jr. into custody.

A Volatile Relationship Laid Bare
Reports reveal that the victim and the suspect had been romantically involved for years. But what began as a verbal argument in the car spiraled into a physical confrontation, and at some point inside that vehicle, Harrison was shot.

Friends of Harrison told WPLG Local 10 that although the pair had been together for quite some time, their relationship had always been volatile.

But in a heartbreaking twist, those same friends turned over a key piece of evidence. They had provided investigators with the Tesla door camera video, which allegedly captured the influencer’s last moments in haunting clarity.

Surveillance footage shared by NBC News shows Whyte Jr. exiting the car with a weapon in his hand. Harrison, reportedly in the passenger seat, appears to be trying to get out, though the suspect is then seen pushing her back into the vehicle.

Whyte Jr. now sits inside the Broward Sheriff’s Office main jail on a no-bond hold, facing a charge of first-degree murder.

A Family Drowning in Grief
Harrison’s family, too overwhelmed with grief to speak publicly, released a short but deeply emotional statement to the press:

“As a family, we appreciate every prayer, kind thought, and gesture during our time of bereavement. Now, we are just praying that justice is served to the fullest degree.”

The heartbreak compounds an already devastating year for the family, as they were still mourning the loss of Harrison’s brother, who was killed by gun violence just last year.

Anyone hoping to help with memorial arrangements can go to the GoFundMe created in Harrison’s honor. The campaign reads:

“Once we finalize arrangements we will also share how you can contribute to the funeral home directly also. Thank you.”

As of this writing, the fundraiser has surpassed its goal of $25,000, with $28,409 raised from 909 donations. The website states that services are scheduled for December 6.

The Rising Star
Harrison was a multifaceted creator, known for her vibrant personality and colorful hair extensions, which she both wore and sold.

She managed several Instagram profiles, including a polished professional account showcasing her work as an artist, YouTuber, and TV personality, which amassed more than 40,000 followers.

She also ran a more casual daily account with over 60,000 followers and another dedicated to her hair extension business and hairstyling craft.

But TikTok is where she truly shone. Nearly 300,000 people followed her charismatic updates about the joys and chaos of everyday life. One post even featured several loving photos with Whyte Jr., a bittersweet reminder of the relationship that ended so tragically.

Now, her comment sections are flooded with thousands of condolence messages from fans who cannot accept that the bright, bold creator they adored is gone.

Mourned By Another Star
One especially tender tribute came from artist JT, who shared a video highlighting Harrison’s sharp rapping talent and penned a moving caption.

“Rest beautiful girlala! We love you & Heaven will never be boring now that you are there, your boldness, energy, humor & beauty will be missed!” the singer wrote. “You never missed a chance to show me love & for that I’m forever grateful.”

The tribute continued with a powerful message about how society treats violence against transgender women and Black women:

“We have to stop thinking things are funny because of the way the story is told! If you see content about DV don’t laugh because it’s a trans or black woman. We have a way of laughing through our pain because we have been shaped to be taken as jokes!”

Her post’s comments section is now also filled with both mourning and grateful messages, as JT showed Harrison tons of support and was an ally to the community.

Deepest condolences to Harrison’s grieving family, friends, and countless followers who are mourning this heartbreaking loss
