Mexican Telenovela actress Karla Alvarez was found dead this past Friday in her home in Mexico City. The Attorney General investigating her death confirmed that Alvarez died from a Cardiac Arrest steaming from Bulimia and Anorexia. Karla was just 41 years old and had a successful career in the Latino show business scene.

She was best known for working alongside actress and recording artist Thalia in the telenovela "Maria Mercedes", which was Alvarez's first acting role in 1992. Thalia was one of the first friends to turn to Twitter saying "sad news with the departure of Karlita Alvarez, great memories on "Maria Mercedes", Prayers and light to her family, rest in peace".
