Camela Leierth-Segura, singer who co-wrote Katy Perry song, vanishes in Beverly Hills

A singer and model who co-wrote Katy Perry’s “Walking On Air” is missing after being evicted from her Beverly Hills rental – and her friends are desperate for help in finding her.

Camela Leierth-Segura, 48, a Swedish-born musician, was last seen June 29, according to a missing-persons report posted by the office of California Attorney General Rob Bonita.

She had recently been evicted from her rental property in Beverly Hills, her landlord told KABC. Friends and neighbors told the outlet she was struggling to pay her rent.

Neighbors noted there were dead plants on her balcony, as well as a “for rent” sign outside. Also missing is Leierth-Segura’s 19-year-old cat Morris, the outlet said.

Leierth-Segura’s friend Liz Montgomery, a writer, reported her missing to police in July after her family in Sweden was unable to contact her.

The missing woman’s sister also got in contact with a friend from New York to help, according to the outlet.

“We are desperately seeking information on the whereabouts of our dear friend, and sister, Camela Leierth, who may also be using the name Camela Leierth Segura,” Montgomery wrote on Instagram.

 “We are extremely worried about her safety, and despite our best efforts, the local authorities have not been able to locate her,” she wrote.
