I met Vanity, in a church of all places. She was so beautiful and nice. I never forgot it. That was in the year 2000. I wish I could have talked with her again before she died. God rest her beautiful soul.
In a church of all places?? Really? She became a minister. Are you a minister? Do you think the doors of the church should be closed to certain people?
Yes, she renounced her flamboyant lifestyle and turned into a religious nut! Then she died from kidney failure due to lifelong drug abuse! Another tragic tale of WASTED YOUTH!
Yeah, she was, but that's not even the point. She seems like a genuinely nice person. And for someone as pretty as her, that humbleness is even more laudable.
Few women could match her beauty especially in the 80's but after she turned her back on showbiz she showed her true inner beauty - what a beautiful kind soul! She will be missed greatly, we can take comfort that she completely changed her life around and lived more than 20 years past the time the Doctors told her she had little chance & that she is no longer suffering physically, she dedicated her life to God. Her testimony is a powerful one! R.I.P. Denise Matthews.
She just seems nice and friendly. No slurred speech, drifting off, nothing. If she's high, like everyone wants to believe, then she's a pro. She's giving a better interview than most sober people.
Same thing i thought. I think ppl are just paying extra attention to her and noticing every little movement she makes just because of her history. RIP tho
She was actually high in this video. The only reason I say this is because Nikki Sixx talked about her being messed up in the interview and blurting out they were engaged in the Motley Crue book The Dirt.
I met her in the 80s at a club in DC called Tracks. She was so down to earth, kind, sweet, and extremely beautiful. She signed a few things for me, gave me a hug and a sweet kiss on the cheek. I cherish that memory.
After reading up more on her life story... I can see and understand her so much more. This woman was so beautiful and people were to intrigued by that they couldn't tell that this woman had some core issues. Just laughing and giggling through the pain. That industry is so rough, I'm just happy that she was able to find relief through spirituality. RIP, baby girl.
+aldo capone yeah...I mean we all have our own demons, also it isn't easy to kick drug addiction and being rich and famous? They get it easily and got people get it for them and probably even free due being famous or whatever how it works....I'm fighting with addiction or is/did, and I am tired of doing it and it is just pains because I had a big, big accident and car flipped...I was surprised and took months to recover....I be crying sometimes too and I just want to be happy, Anyways.. have a good day
Not necessarily. They could very well have the same father. Mixed offspring can come out either phenotypically more "white", more "black" or "mixed" looking. They don't always have to possess one particular phenotype. Genetics is interesting like that.
DIRT by Motley Crue and HEROIN DIARIES by Nikki Sixx really gives you a shocking, intimate and frightening portrayal of her insane drug/alcohol relationship with Nikki. How they survived is a miracle.
Beautiful woman. She was Prince's life long love that got away. Some say his drug use got worse when Vanity died in February. RIP Vanity and Prince. Your souls are together again.
Well, he didn't do cocaine or anything like that but I do know that the former Vanity 6 members said they had to come over and make his dinner because he stopped eating after she died and lost sooooo much weight. Poor thing. But, yes they are together now :)
Vanity is the reason why Beyonce is as big a deal today. I had the pleasure of talking to Vanity before she passed away. Very beautiful lady and a true servant of God. I was very proud of her. R.I.P. Love always.
Denise AKA Vanity was SO beautiful, just drop dead! She was just like such an idol for me back then, her looks, personality, smile... there was just no one like her.. I loved her! RIP Denise Matthews
Aww, poor thing can see why arsenio was holding her hand he knew she was intoxicated. But she left this world as a church-going, Jesus praising woman of God!!!! Jesus can change anyone if you just let him. God Bless your soul sister Matthews. RIP
+Michael Glaze it's so sad ! Loved her in the last dragon but actually in this video she was extreamly fucked up on drugs and lied about her engagement ! Sadly she had an overdose and never recovered and sued from kidney failure . She was beautiful and talented . Very sad
You read The Heroin Diaries and understand what a mess her life was at this time and so was Nikki's. If they had gotten married they wouldn't have remembered it happened. She was way more hyped up here than her earlier interviews. If she wasn't high she was dying to get high as soon as this was over. She got too crazy for Nikki and he was strung out on heroin at the time. Such a beautiful women. A cautionary tale.
Vanity Was Sooo Beautiful. I Loved Her Music From Vanity 6 Days And Along With The movies That She Has Acted In Back In The 80's! I Loved Her In "The Last Dragon" With Her Role As Laura Charles.
The 80's rocked! From the clothes to the style, it is interesting what we were able to accomplish back then without Twitter or Facebook! These kids today couldn't party like we did. I wish I had a time machine right now.
Sheels1976 - I felt the same way as you did about Vanity. In my opinion, she had the perfect nose, lips, cheekbones, eyebrows, eyes and complexion. And when she smiled, that too was perfect.
+Charles Elliott It was more like 20 years ago if it were 30 she might still be alive due to the damage to her kidneys and other organs. Sadly she wasn't a smart woman but most who turn to religion are not. Appolonia who is smart never turned to drugs or some false god afterward and to this day is doing well.
She needed her sister for this interview because Vanity was high on cocaine and God knows what else. So glad she cleaned up her act and saved her life!
+tee L. I noticed that too. For sisters to hold hands is one thing...but when your just talking to a host, its kinda bizarre for them to keep a hold of your hand. He had a death grip on it and she was trying to yank it away several times. Also when she came out, he gave her an exxxtra good hug, and she turns to the audience after, in an, oh my goodness kinda glance. Someone needed to turn a garden hose on him to cool him down, lol, but who could blame him?
@@ironmike-putsallkindavideo7840 Pop culture began in the early 1900's but, great music and entertainers didn't come around until the 70's. The 80's was the greatest era!
@@ironmike-putsallkindavideo7840 So true, they even say it about the 2000s - go to any terrible Black Eyed Peas or Limp Bizkit video to find people talking about what an amazing time for culture it was and how today can't compare.
Probably the most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my lifetime. She's mesmerizing. Appollonia was such a disappointing replacement for her in Purple Rain.
This is from 1987! Arsenio Hall was the host of The Late Show in 1987. Joan Rivers was the host in 1986. Vanity was gorgeous, her sister was pretty too. She looked so happy announcing her engagement to Nikki Sixx but it was such a toxic relationship.

Vanity was most likely higher than a kite but still so much fun to watch and still so beautiful. The wonderful life of the 80's..good times. This was the woman to be before Janet
+Gunnhild Edwards Yes I noticed that too. She does that kinda incognito sniffle a few times and has that sound in her voice like her nose is numb. She does several gestures towards her nose like she wants to itch it or some crumbs are about to fall out of it. I think she did a little toot toot before the show to boost her confidence. It must be extremely nerve racking to be the center of attention in front of hundreds of people, let alone cameras and millions of viewers watching your every move. I really like her tho, you can tell she was a good person and wow what a sexy singer and dancer.
why are we so quick to judge , none of us are PERFECT, Vanity 6 was one of the baddest female groups back in the day , Yes drugs are terrible and will destroy you , some people are stronger than others , but it's not our place to judge , it is sad that she's gone , we can say shes no longer suffering, R I P
Rachel Jordan No, Vanity's sister was the very first woman they talked to with the secret (she worships the devil). lol The one that was into the group thing is a woman named Lisa Gumora.
nikki 6 left her I believe three days before getting married. they were both on a drug addicts caught in a world of fame. no matter how many men she's had after Prince,her heart was always with Prince. Either Prince had a type he preferred or he always was with women who resembled vanity. as beautiful as his women were after Vanity,none compared to Vanity's beauty. her soul was just as beautiful.
In "The Dirt", by Motley Crue, Nikki Sixx claims that Vanity bought this ring herSELF- then kept announcing their engagement.. He said that she'd send flowers to herself, & sign Prince's name; the cards read "PLEASE come back to me, Darling", etc. Nikki also said that after he'd go out & score their "nightly dope" , Vanity wanted to keep it all - so she'd send him out on sucker's errands ( "Go buy a gallon of milk") then lock him out. "6' fell for this. Every. Single.Night..
It's so obvious how Vanity set the template for most of the women Prince was with after. When she laughed that gorgeous laugh at 5:52, I literally saw Shiela E!
Our thoughts and prayers goes out to Arsenio Hall, the girls of Vanity and Apollonia 6, Prince, The Last Dragon, Action Jackson and a episode of Friday the 13th.
I just heard that Vanity died. Of the menagerie of women Prince associated himself with, I'm an Apollonia fan first, but it didn't mean I disliked Vanity. As someone who also dated Nikki Sixx for a while, I always looked upon Vanity as the lovely lady who bridged the gap between the realm of heavy metal and the Paisley Park scene. I hope to see you on The Other Side, Denise, along with Stevie Ray Vaughn, John Entwistle, and John Bonham.
So fine, I love Vanity. I remembered as a teen attending school in Westchester and people saying she lived around the corner. I was always hoping to bump into her! 👀
I read The Heroin Diaries Nikki wrote around the beginning of it.. it was discussing in 1986, and about stories with Vanity. So yeah she was probably definitely high..
I wish I was there, i'm a 1988 baby. Wish I was born a 11 years earlier. The 80's seem so fun especially with my baby Janet Jackson blowing up the charts

In "The Dirt", by Motley Crue, Nikki Sixx claims that Vanity bought this ring herSELF- then kept announcing their engagement.. He said that she'd send flowers to herself, & sign Prince's name; the cards read "PLEASE come back to me, Darling", etc. Nikki also said that after he'd go out & score their "nightly dope" , Vanity wanted to keep it all - so she'd send him out on sucker's errands ( "Go buy a gallon of milk") then lock him out. "6' fell for this. Every. Single.Night..
He also said she had her own personal dealer that hung around her building all the time. She spent a LOT of money on that stuff.
It's easy to see how the gave Arsenio the reins to take over the show. He's such a good, fun interviewer- esp back then
Damn!
I was here 7 years ago
She was the most beautiful woman to walk the planet😘😘😘RIP Vanity AKA Denise Matthews...
Vanity's sister was in the movie Coming To America, she was the devil worshipper in the club that Eddie and Arsenio were trying to find a wife.
she was high as a kite but so beautiful I hate tragedies rest in peace beautiful lady
It's so obvious how Vanity set the template for most of the women Prince was with after. When she laughed that gorgeous laugh at 5:52, I literally saw Shiela E!
Sheila E can't touch Denise Matthews beauty.
@@helenbradford2569 Nobody can.
One of the most beautiful women to ever roam the earth. RIP
Our thoughts and prayers goes out to Arsenio Hall, the girls of Vanity and Apollonia 6, Prince, The Last Dragon, Action Jackson and a episode of Friday the 13th.
+Gothiczartan thoughts and prayers to Arsenic..i mean Arsenio?? why? Did he die? Or just his personality in this interview?
+xistm prince died
prince died april 21,2016 this comment was posted february 16. Im confused.
Jazzy Pacheco vanity passes away but....
@@bellaj2651they posted that because vanity died on the 15th of February 2016
I just heard that Vanity died. Of the menagerie of women Prince associated himself with, I'm an Apollonia fan first, but it didn't mean I disliked Vanity. As someone who also dated Nikki Sixx for a while, I always looked upon Vanity as the lovely lady who bridged the gap between the realm of heavy metal and the Paisley Park scene. I hope to see you on The Other Side, Denise, along with Stevie Ray Vaughn, John Entwistle, and John Bonham.
She had an amazing sincere and classy personality to have started out as a "kinky sex symbol". Her laugher is contagiously bueatiful!!
So fine, I love Vanity. I remembered as a teen attending school in Westchester and people saying she lived around the corner. I was always hoping to bump into her! 👀
Ha! That's a funny story - was this in LA? Did you ever hear anything else about her?
RIP Vanity and wait I think her sister played in the Movie "Coming to America"?
Yup im pretty sure thats her. the scene where they're at a club hoping to find a bride and shes like "....i worship the devil".
Yup
+honeybun33 Yes her name is Patrica Matthews
yep when they went to the club
honeybun33 yup. I watch that movie wayy too often to let that slip by me lol
This was a fun interview to watch
Damn she was fine both of them, man only if I was around in the 80s. But beware of the drugs
You can see how the drugs started affecting her, so sad.
And no one knows what those drugs were cut with. Could’ve been a slow-acting poison...anything detrimental. RIP
Such a babe! We don’t see beautiful women or beauty like this anymore! Never will be forgotten!!
I believe Prince really loved her!! ❤🧘♀️🙏💫
I think she really loved Nikki, it is obvious when she talks about him and about the marriage😢 it would be great of they were engaged
arsenio was the shit! miss that show.
+hugo chavez ,he was an idiot.
xistm Damn!💀
@@jonathancannon8955 😂😂😂😂😂
@@jonathancannon8955 Lmao 😂
It's great to see all three of them interviewed as a group for a change as it's usually just Vanity on her own.
;-)
He he hee!
I read The Heroin Diaries Nikki wrote around the beginning of it.. it was discussing in 1986, and about stories with Vanity. So yeah she was probably definitely high..
Thank you! right Exactly but Not Prince then when he married another woman Stared 1996 - to 2000 another woman our divorce. so you know it
I wish I was there, i'm a 1988 baby. Wish I was born a 11 years earlier. The 80's seem so fun especially with my baby Janet Jackson blowing up the charts
