Former pop singer and actress, Denise Matthews, popular known as is dead. She
passed on Monday, she was 57. Born in Canada, Matthews was a protege of Prince
and the lead singer of the vixenish trio Vanity 6, whose biggest song was the
synthy 1982 single “Nasty Girl.” She left the group after one album to pursue a
solo career, recording the LPs Wild Animal and Skin on Skin.

She also dabbled in acting, with roles in such films as The Last Dragon, 52
Pick-Up, and Action Jackson. Her TV credits included Miami Vice and Highlander.
Matthews struggled with drug abuse for years before getting clean and
becoming a born-again Christian in the 1990s. She published an autobiography,
Blame It on Vanity, and dedicated herself to evangelism. Health problems long
plagued her, and last year she set up a crowdfunding page to help cover her
medical costs.
May her soul rest in peace!!!
