Justin Bieber Tributes Superfan Alicia Tamboia Who Was Killed In A Car Accident

#RIPAlicia trends for Justin Bieber superfan, Alicia Tamboia, who was killed in a car accident on Friday.

Justin Bieber tribute the late Alicia Tamboia on Saturday by tweeting #RIPAlicia, for a fan killed in a car accident on Friday.

The 24-year-old and Cody Veverka were killed just before midnight near Albany, New York, when the Volkswagen in which they traveled as passengers hit another vehicle and spun into a tractor-trailer, according to police and media reports.

After the news of Alicia’s death spread on Saturday, Bieber’s fans sent #RIPAlicia to the top of trending topics on Twitter in the States, in solidarity for the 2008 high school graduate who reportedly helped many “Beliebers” connect with the singer and contributed to Pop Dust as a writer.

Alicia met Bieber at numerous “Meet and Greets” before his shows over the years, based on social media tributes and Tombai’s own posts.

At the time of press, Justin tweeted the hashtag as a poignant top post on his timeline.

Alfredo Flores, videographer and close pal of Bieber, also added his voice to the outpouring, and tweeted of Alicia:

RIP Alicia. I remember her coming to so many shows, always filled with energy. Beautiful spirit. My prayers are with her friends & family.

As well as acknowledging Alicia’s tragic death, Justin previously publicly mourned the death of Avalanna Routh, the 6-year-old fan who died from atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor, a rare form of brain cancer in September 2012 and was widely known as “Mrs. Bieber.”

In a 2013 tribute, Avalanna’s mother, Aileen Routh, said of her daughter’s relationship with Bieber:

“One of her greatest adventures was meeting Justin Bieber. In typical Avalanna fashion, she was completely unfazed by Justin’s fame.”

“She fell in love with a cute boy who was mesmerized by our girl because she radiated life, love, laughter and so much mischief. She was the light of our lives and still shines so bright.”

In addition to the many special needs fans Bieber has connected with over the years, back in December the then 19-year-old performed a special VEVO acoustic show for Kate O’Neill, an Australian car crash survivor.

RIP Alicia Tombai.
