Shannon Tavarez | Shannon Tavarez Dies

Shannon Tavarez is a best singer and the age is 11.She died due cancer,She recently played Young Nala in The Lion King on Broadway, passed away after a long battle with acute myeloid leukemia. 

Doctors had been unable to find a bone-marrow match for a transplant. Tavarez had received an umbilical-cord transplant in late August as an alternative. 

Tavarez's struggle struck a chord with Keys and Rihanna, both of whom started their singing careers at an early age. Both had campaigned to get Tavarez the bone-marrow transplant she needed. 



Tavarez made her Broadway debut in September 2009, playing four of eight shows a week in The Lion King until April, when she was diagnosed.
