Hollywood can make a mess out of a normal person's life. It was hard to believe Denise Matthews (Vanity) went that low. But the time she finally cleaned up, her internal organs were far too weak for survival. RIP Denise Matthews (ie. Vanity).
+nancydrew5 she was....but her abusive past ruined her and got her on drugs to escape the pain....then she got into religion and "Jesus" didnt heal her....
+corsican lulu That's some bullshit. She got into religion, went rock bottom and really she could've died 20-22 years ago, but "Jesus" gave her a second chance and she lived 22 more years. She suffered enough. She's were she wanted to be, where she's been preparing to be. Where I and you should prepare to be. Why you talkin' all that shit.
+Mia Lito It literally makes me spit my drink out with LAUGHTER when i hear people talk about how they LOOK LIKE VANITY. Not even her own sisters look like her so it.s a joke when others make that kind of statement. She was ONE of a kind...and the most gorgeous Ever. No1 can touch her. Not only that but she seemed to be a sweet, kind person who i never heard anyone ever say a bad thing about. Everyone adored her. She was the 1st. Before the lace lingerie wearing Madonnas and alll the others...Vanity/ Denise was first. Let it be known.
+Mia Lito LOVE ur post & da dtailz within. I hate drugz & drug abuse. I promised my mom, I'd never do any of them after she took me 2 c a movie about a kid, who bcame addicted 2 heroin & died. By da end of dat movie, I wuz scared straight!!! Un4tunately, I met BEAUTIFUL WOmen, who were addicted 2 drugz. My LOVE 4 them, could not cure them. I didn't know whut 2 do. I warned them about da toxicity, BUTT they couldn't handle da truth. SMH Whut I had 2 do, n each SINstance, iz pry myself away from those ladiez & suffer my own version of going cold turkey, bcause I had bcum a Co-dpendant mess, n both SINstancez. They were both so darling & complimentary 2wardz my sexual urgez. I had 2 git over da hurt & da pain & learn not 2 b so liberal n my mating dlusionz, lest I end-up wit yet anutha junkie. N both of my love nterest livez, they got n2 drug usage thru noSINt partying. Soon, da drug usage took over, & a loved-1z feelingz & emotionz, meant nuthing n comparison 2 da drug high dat could replace soberness. I wuz no BIG consolation prize. After-all, I wuz boring..... just cum home after work, veg n front of da TV & repeat da procedure. These were WOmen, of da nite. They sorta lived like vampirez. Nice gurlz, BUTT drug addictz, 2 da core. When I hear about Ms. Matthewz, I think of my Xz. They meant da world 2 me, like I'm sure Vanity would have. I'm sure, she woulda dtested me, 4 wanting 2 bang her all of da time, just like 1 of my GFz, ended-up doing, & da pattern would have repeated. Itz just amazing, dat such BEAUTY, can b so flawed, yet we still LOVE it & da WOmen attached 2 those lookz. I know I wuz hopelessly n LOVE wit da ladiez, I have mentioned. RIP - Denise Matthewz. I REALly hope u find sanctuary, away from whutever dmonz, were doggin u, here on Earth! 2 my drug addict xGFz. I wish thangz coulda been different, btween us. MOST OF ALL, I hope ur ok & dat u have sumhow kicked da monkey off of ur back, & have bgan 2 live a FULL & productive life, filled wit love & joy. Da thingz I wished 2 provide 4 u. OUTERZ.......
Oh I loved this show so much. I had them all on tape before someone in the family TAPED over all of them. Talking about head explosion! hahaha. Thanks for sharing I have been looking for Booker episodes. I had THE biggest crush on Richard Grieco!!!!! And you have my girl in the episode too. Can't get any better than this. R.I.P. angel.
I used to love 21 Jump Street! Can't believe I forgot about this episode. Rest in peace Denise "Vanity" Matthews and Thomas Mikal Ford! I miss the way Vanity AND Aaliyah broke glass ceilings as Black actresses in many of their acting roles.
Richard Grieco didn't age well. Used to have a crush on him back in the 80s. And thanks for uploading this! It is nice to know there's still some vintage Vanity footage out there still being uploaded.
when pple cry out for help in ways like being addicted to anything pple should no that that's a sighn we just ignore the problem because this is a selfish world everyone out for their own so were all at fault ! its sad I'm also at fault in that I've learned as I got older never judge we all have r demons ! no one perfect pay more attention of pples actions then we might save them before its to late ! rip vanity buetiful girl !
Denise was a true beauty; it's too bad she ruined her health with drug use. She was also hard headed from all accounts; sadly, she ruined her own life and like the rest of us had to learn the hard way. At least it lead her out of that Hollyweird world into a life dedicated to the Lord.
Nevermind I was wrong this is like episode 8 of Booker it's been so many years since I watched Booker that I get it confused for some reason I always think that this is the pilot episode a Booker because of the 21 Jump Street crossover
She eventually gave her life to Christ and became an evangelist let't not forget this people. Vanity was a brick house and in my opinion was the one and only Prince should have married he knew in the end he had missed the mark and tried to correct it, they were meant for one another but Satan misled him down another path by satanic witches that's why things happen the way they did. God is not going to let you take down his children🎉😘😄😍😉😇🌺😇😇😇
sorry She was depressed. sometimes. the way people are raised can really hurt the mind. it was better for her hang in there with Prince. the love scene. should have been taken.out. people didn't need to see her and Prince in a love scene. she. meant well by him.
Hello everyone....please support Denise's Gofundme page. She no longer goes by Vanity. She has been really sick and been hospitalized 4x over the past month.Thanks! www.gofundme.com/esiy74
Denise was beautiful! Her beauty was incredibly striking.
She was so beautiful.
The song playing was ahead of its time.
I think it’s edited
Rest in peace, Ms. Matthews.
She was so tapped into life that she was a natural actress. The woman could make you feel her pain. ❤

88-89 was when she was getting clean. You can see it.
If only she'd had someone to save her from drugs, she could have been so successful as an actress. RIP Vanity. AKA Denise Matthews

VANITY WAS VERY BEAUTIFUL!
Rip Sister Denise Matthews and Prince Rogers Nelson!!
What a coincidence!
Always a beauty. RIP
Just so beautiful
I used to love 21 Jump Street! Can't believe I forgot about this episode. Rest in peace Denise "Vanity" Matthews and Thomas Mikal Ford! I miss the way Vanity AND Aaliyah broke glass ceilings as Black actresses in many of their acting roles.
This is the show "BOOKER" starring Richard Greico from 21 Jump Street
@@MayditaVanessa Oh ok. Glad you corrected me.
Can you imagine who epic Purple Rain would have been if Denise hadn't left?
It wouldnt have been much different. Apollonia was just as beautiful and just as good an actress
tTHE ONLY 1 BEAUTIFUL VANITY!!
SHE'S MY WIFE!
Denise Matthew
Gorgeous
I sat thru so much Booker crap just to see Vanity!haha 💗her! RIP Denise!
Beautiful woman
Vanity sounded like Apollonia when she said please leave me alone.4:44
RIP Denise. XO
Richard Grieco didn't age well. Used to have a crush on him back in the 80s.
And thanks for uploading this! It is nice to know there's still some vintage Vanity footage out there still being uploaded.
Lol surgery
Richard Grieco was HOT back in the day! I had the BIGGEST crush on him in 6th grade!
yes he was super HOTTTTTT back then
Me too!!
Tricia 77 ikr, have you seen him lately? Wth?
Oh how I wish someone would post her on The New Mike Hammer series.
MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD
Rest in peace Vanity!
I wonder if Prince ever watched her movies
Requietta Gaskins same
Probably

Had nearly forgotten about Richard Grieco but have always loved Vanity.
I think this was real in her life. 4:23
Unfortunately, it was.
Oh god he was so super HOTTTT
Not listed on her IMDb site. I used to have clips of this on a former channel, which includes her sitting on the bed with music playing.
Hi, does anybody know the song that plays at the start of this video? Thanks in advance
There is video footage of her testimony way better than this!! RIP Denise! Missing you!!
Denise was a true beauty; it's too bad she ruined her health with drug use. She was also hard headed from all accounts; sadly, she ruined her own life and like the rest of us had to learn the hard way. At least it lead her out of that Hollyweird world into a life dedicated to the Lord.
I used to like this show lol. I forgot all about it. Wow.
Nevermind I was wrong this is like episode 8 of Booker it's been so many years since I watched Booker that I get it confused for some reason I always think that this is the pilot episode a Booker because of the 21 Jump Street crossover
What is the song playing at the beginning?
Booker was a decent show. Richard Grieco was the $hit back then
Whats the song in the beginning ?
TOMMY! Too many RIP’s!
Wow that's interesting
She eventually gave her life to Christ and became an evangelist let't not forget this people. Vanity was a brick house and in my opinion was the one and only Prince should have married he knew in the end he had missed the mark and tried to correct it, they were meant for one another but Satan misled him down another path by satanic witches that's why things happen the way they did. God is not going to let you take down his children🎉😘😄😍😉😇🌺😇😇😇
... Dennis and Denise,... Hubba hubba!! It was meant to be!
yes, I had a feeling this was 21 jump street. lol
See Denise had breast implants here. She was a lovely lady.
She look like Halle Barry in the thumbnail pic.
I know I thinks she looks like Halle Berry too. She looked a lot better of course but a strong resemblance.
@@erickanew lmfaooo ...what
what song is this?j sounds like
Elisa Fiorello
Gorgeous mixed race vanity is the best,I'm so proud to be mixed race,mixed people and multiracial people the best ever.
I dead ass thought she was Halle Berry in the thumbnail. She resembles her so much to me.
sorry She was depressed. sometimes. the way people are raised can really hurt the mind. it was better for her hang in there with Prince. the love scene. should have been taken.out. people didn't need to see her and Prince in a love scene. she. meant well by him.
part 2. the love scene in purple rain. was a no no. not good to display them two like that
She wasn’t in purple rain.... 😒🤣
Was she on any of 21 jump street episodes
