São Paulo, Brazil – Bárbara Jankavski, the 31-year-old Brazilian influencer famous for her doll-like looks, was found dead in a shocking way on November 2, 2025. Known online as “Boneca Desumana” or the “human Barbie,” she spent years changing her body to match the toy. But her story ended in mystery, with police looking into drugs and strange injuries.
Jankavski built a big following on social media. She had more than 55,000 fans on Instagram and about 344,000 on TikTok. Her posts showed off her daily life and all the work she did to look like a real-life Barbie. Starting young, she chased that perfect doll style. People called her the “inhuman doll” because of how fake and smooth she looked.
To get there, Jankavski went through at least 27 surgeries. These cost her around 48,000 euros, or about $52,000. She shared every step with her followers, turning her changes into fun content. Her last post came on October 1, 2025 – just a month before she died. It made fans wonder what happened in those quiet weeks.
The night she passed away started like many of her paid meetups. A man named Renato Campos Pinto de Vitto, a 51-year-old public worker, hired her for some private time at his home in west São Paulo. They used illegal drugs together, he told police. Jankavski fell asleep after that. When Vitto saw she wasn’t moving, he called for help right away.
Emergency teams rushed over. They tried to bring her back for nine minutes, but it was too late. Paramedics said she was gone when they got there. Police showed up and saw her in just underwear. They spotted marks on her back and a cut near her left eye. That made everything look suspicious.
A friend of Jankavski said the eye cut might have come from a fall that same day. Still, cops opened a case for a death under odd conditions. They took her body for tests, including a full check and drug screening. Right now, no one knows the exact cause. Vitto is talking to police as the only other person there. His story could help clear things up.
Fans took the news hard. Tributes poured in on her social pages, full of shock and sad words. “Can’t believe it’s real,” one wrote. Her fame stayed mostly in Brazil, but news spread worldwide. Stories like hers make people talk about the dangers for online stars, especially in risky jobs.
The police probe goes on in São Paulo. They wait for lab results to learn more about the drugs and hurts. Jankavski’s life was all about beauty and likes, but it ended too soon in a dark turn. Her tale warns about the hidden sides of chasing a perfect look.
