Hi, Vic,
I’m glad she converted to Christianity too. That’s really sad though that she
led a wild life before that but so many people who are famous have made bad
choices in life. I’m sure she’s in Heaven with our Lord now.

Hi, Marty:
I remember her and I heard that she had become a minister. I saw her on
Christian TV shows. I was glad about her conversion to Christianity and I'm
sorry she has died.

VANITY - OBIT UNDATED (AP) She was one of Prince's sexy protégés. But she
left show business to pursue a life as a minister. The performer known as
Vanity has died. A spokeswoman for a hospital in Fremont, California says she
died yesterday but didn't provide a cause of death. However, her sister says
Vanity died of complications from longstanding kidney issues. Vanity was born
Denise Matthews in Niagara Falls, Ontario and first rose to fame through her
association with Prince and the 1980s girl group, Vanity 6. She began using
crack cocaine and other drugs and she said that caused her kidneys to fail. Her
sister says Vanity was happier in recent years noting that while she loved her
time in the 1980s, she seemed to enjoy her recent time more because she was at
peace. Vanity was 57. Sound: 003-r-30-(Sound of Vanity 6, performing "Nasty
