An unlicensed cosmetologist made her first appearance in a San Mateo County courtroom Monday to face charges for the death of a Kim Kardashian-lookalike model. Vivian Alexandra Gomez, 50, is charged with felony involuntary manslaughter and felony practicing medicine without a certificate. She did not enter a plea. The model, Christina Ashten Gourkani, 34, of San Jose, relied on aesthetic procedures to sculpt her body into an exaggerated version of Kardashian’s famous curves. Gomez gave the model botched silicone buttock injections inside a Burlingame hotel room at San Francisco Airport Marriott Waterfront on April 19, prosecutors said. Gourkani became gravely ill, was hospitalized, and died the following day.
