Well, glad she did do it, at least, so she'll be in Heaven now, and
will see no more pain or sickness.

Whatâs really sad is that she became a Christian and an evangelical minister after she quit the music and movies.

Way too young to die. Too bad they couldnât have helped her kidneys with a transplant, or something. Story is all too familiar, though, in the music and acting scenes. Maybe weâll see her heaven some day.

Hi, Marty:
I remember her too and remember hearing that she had become a minister. I saw her on Christian TV shows. I was glad for her conversion 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.
