Fly High, Angel.

Talia Joy Castellano



As I'm sure many of you have heard, Talia Joy has passed away.  For those who don't know, Talia Joy Castellano is a 13 year old girl with a very impressive YouTube channel that had almost 1,000,000 followers. She also had two types of cancer. Sadly, on Tuesday she was called home by God. You can view her YouTube channel at youtube.com/taliajoy18. She also has a Facebook page called "Angels For Talia" that is updated by her family members.

This amazing little girl was only on this earth for 13 years and she was fighting cancer for 6 of them. Most girls start experimenting with makeup around age 13 but she was extremely talented and loved what she did. She started experimenting with makeup at age 7 when she decided that she didn't want to wear a wig. Makeup gave her confidence and she told people "makeup is my wig".

Not only was she a popular YouTuber, she was also an honorary CoverGirl, made an appearance on the Ellen Degeneris show, and she was a spokesperson for kids with cancer. Talia was such a strong little girl and even when she was sick she was busy raising money for her favorite charity, and would film beauty videos and cancer updates. She held on for as long as she could and fought a long, hard battle. Heaven definitely gained an angel and the world lost an amazing, strong, and beautiful little girl. Rest In Peace, Talia. I know your legacy will continue on through your family.

xo, Sarah

    I didn't know anything about her, but of course, heard the news through social media and whatnot. So sad. Really teaches us that health is wealth.
