Air ambulance services rushed the 25-year-old to hospital after being treated at the scene but she sadly passed away shortly after.
The motorbike rider, a man in his 40s, was also injured in the smash and his condition is unknown.
Met Police confirmed they arrested the driver of the car, 22, on suspicion of drug driving.
Heartbroken tributes have poured in since Lousha’s death.
Her friend Chilli Sanders wrote on her dedicated gofundme page: “In the vibrant world of dance, Lousha was a hip-hop luminary—a 25-year-old dance choreographer and creative director whose artistry transcended the boundaries of movement.
“With boundless energy, infectious passion, and an innate ability to fuse different dance styles, Lousha had become a beacon of inspiration for those fortunate enough to witness her creations.”
Chilli lovingly told how her friend began dancing at a young age and had a “natural talent” at “storytelling” through her well-respected choreography.
Known as Lady-Lousha in the industry, the “beautiful” performer became a creative director at the BBC, ITV, in film, television and stage productions.
She even joined singer Ed Sheeran on the stage at the BRIT Awards 2022 as a dancer.
Funds raised are being donated to the young performer’s parents to help contribute towards her “celebration of life”.
Another pal said: “Lousha Liddell from the moment I met you I loved you to bits, followed your journey to university and the amazing accomplishments you’ve made.
“I’m heartbroken, heartbroken for your beautiful mum Joanna Stokes and your entire family.
“I am at a loss you were and will forever be a beautiful soul.”
“Rest beautifully Lousha, I’ll miss you and our talks,” wrote another grieving friend.
“I still have all your voice notes full of relationship advice. God knows I’ve had them on repeat just to hear your voice.
“We had made so many plans and never got to do any of them, either you were busy or I was too sick or anxious.
“I really hope you’re at peace, I’m so proud of you and everything you achieved despite the hurdles.”
Another emotional friend said: “We are all broken.
“Lousha Liddell you were one of the best friends I’ve ever had, I can not believe this is real I can’t believe I’m writing this.
“I loved you so much, you were so loved and taken way to soon in the middle of you’re prime you were one of a kind, there are no words.
“The world will never be the same, Rest in paradise sister.”
