Them dance moves and facials mixed with her beauty produced some pretty weird nostalgia for me as a child and even now today. RIP Denise. never forget this.
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.
But did you get the message.. put in front of you to see and not see, hear and not hear. The reason everyone heard this is so you cant say you was not told...
They have not the slightest clue. Not even aware that every man she's had a relationship with has experienced death. That ALL the primary characters in The Last Dragon is now deceased except for Leroy Green. That this evil woman passed away as a sorceress disguised as an "Evangelist".
That's sad... This was one of the most annoying things in the film aside from Eddie Arkadian's girlfriend.😂 But they were both extremely close...lol! Did ya put car lights on your tits and try to imitate that too?😂
I used to see Prince and Vanity at a club on Sunset back in the early 80's....called El Privado (SP?) they always sat in VIP.....Prince would NEVER DANCE.....Vanity would at times, come on Dance Floor, surrounded by his Security.....and Dance for him.....GOD.....she was BEAUTIFUL......!!!!!!
Most Definitely in thats my part i was in love with her still to this day Rest In Paradise my forever love and krush. It will never be one as lovely and stunning as you Denise Matthew's aka The Legendary Vanity 🌹😍💍🙏🏾🕊✝️
Just watched this movie again last night. I have a total girl-crush on Denise. She was just flawless. My eyes are glued to her whenever she's on screen, whatever she's in.
This movie was a staple in our house! My mom loved it. I haven't watched it since she passed. My big brother, who I nicknamed Bruce LeRoy (since he taught karate), passed away recently and he loved this movie, too! I need to find that DVD!
I was captivated by the performance of Vanity and the 7th Heaven Dancers in this video clip. I see that there is some questioning of Vanity's singing ability in some quarters. I personally think comparing Vanity to other singers like Whitney Houston or Mariah Carey is like comparing apples and oranges. I think you take Vanity for what she was - an enticing and charismatic entertainer. Also a couple of the dancers were really burning the dance floor. I didn't really fixate on the song and dance when I saw the movie as a kid, but looking back I appreciate this more.
When she say Oh No! We Dont Burn Angels On The Fire, I use to melt damn i miss this Goddess Denise Matthew's aka The Legendary Vanity 🌹😍💍 my forever love and krush. Rest In Paradise Queen 🙏🏾🕊✝️. #7thHeaven, #SexShooter, #UnderTheInfluence, #NastyGirl, #Confidential, #FarAwayEyes
Yeah, let's hope not. I'm sure there's better things she's done in her life than the few B-flicks she appeared in or the few stripper pole songs she created..... Too bad she killed herself. What a waste.
***** even more so now. she is a woman in her 50's and looks nice for her age. and that fact that she is walking with the lord makes her even more beautiful.
I'll be watching the Last Dragon this weekend. Vanity you will be missed and even though I may not be religious I hope heaven is real because you are an angel.
Say what you will about Vanity but she nailed everything she did. Even b-grade crap like this she made it work. Under rated and talented beyond. Rip truly a mind blowing woman
I'm thinking (hoping) he meant the song is b-grade crap, not the movie. I love a lot of her music; but this song, although definitely catchy, honestly isn't very good.
For any minority kid who grew up in the 80s like me, this movie was GROUNDBREAKING for us! It was so great to see a movie with mostly black, brown and yellow faces. Just watched it again the other day. Cult classic.
+Janette Fujiwara a lot people said the same thing about 2016 I could said that same thing cause I loss my grandma yes I miss her but that Dont make 2016 the worst year it wan those people time to die and 2017 gonna be the same as well. it's what you make it
I was surprized to find out her life was a hell at that time, she became a heavy drug addict later on, lost her kindneys and now is an evangelist. Praise God.
I’m sorry but her features are literally perfect and her face is perfectly symmetrical. I can’t think of anyone prettier or close to being this pretty , maybe Jessica Lucas or Lauren London.
I used to have the biggest crush on Vanity when I was a kid. I used to play this scene on the VHS tape over & over again. loved this song and movie thanks for posting
@@milanaaaaaaaa what the hell does that mean?...lol! All I'm saying is that it's a B-flick.... And don't get me wrong, it's fun and I grew up liking it quite a bit... It's very nostalgic. But I wouldn't put it off as anything within reach of my favorites.
Vanity was so gorgeous and perfect. It's sad that she came around in the '80s when they were such sticklers about height for modeling which is so silly. She was almost 5'7 but that was still too short then so she could only do print work. She would have looked a million times better than anyone on that runway. Then the '90s came and Kate Moss who is barely 5'6 walked every single runway. I also read that Vanity was so gorgeous in person that it was almost distracting to work with her. When she walked on the street or into a room literally everyone would look at her. I can see why it seemed like she did not have many girlfriends before she left her career because these girls would have been so jealous. One woman who interviewed her said that she had interviewed the most beautiful models and actresses but when Vanity walked in she was stunned. She said her skin was like Café au lait and she was mesmerized by her beauty and kindness. ❤❤❤
Denise!!! God used her til the VERY END. Prince died shortly after. Many regrets and moons later. They are together in the end. He tried to fight it, but some things you can't compartmentalize. #day1fanofboth💜💜🙏🏾🕊🕊
Bruce lee kung fu theme , comedy , action, Sho Nuff , Vanity , Bruce lee roy , one of my favorite movies of all time . If you were a kid in the 80s you'll understand what I'm talking about 👍👍👍
I use to be so in love with her. I remember when I was a kid i called the operator in California trying to get her number and the operator laughed at me but said celebrities like to be unlisted in the phone directory
RIP to the most beautiful woman ever !
I so agree.
@Priscilla She said rip to Vanity why bring up Whitney? Kinda rude
SHE'S DEAD?! SINCE WHEN AND WHY DIDNT ANYONE TELL ME??!
@@TheBlur009er I didnt know either oml, rip vanity x
She died
Them dance moves and facials mixed with her beauty produced some pretty weird nostalgia for me as a child and even now today. RIP Denise. never forget this.
Her charisma took her stunning beauty beyond the barriers. Now she leveled up to be a most beautiful sister in Christ.
🙏😇

This was a beautiful comment I really appreciate reading this about Vanity
@@rebeccareed5792 Why did the doctors told Vanity that she had little chance to live?
Denise kicked her habit once she turned her life to God, no?
@@kenterminateddq5311 Her kidneys were done.
Man she was so beautiful. Loved this movie since I was a little girl.

Haha me too!!!
I was most definitely in love with Vanity back in the day! The Last Dragon is a great movie!!
Me too my brother.
movie magic. she is unique tho
I swear to God I used to try and perform this exactly like Vanity did it, when I was a kid. Awesomeness.
Lol me too.

James Lavash when Prince passed Charlie Murphy was talking about that same club El Privado on the radio
Man you got to see that, outstanding.
Was Susan n Brenda Kim uspher their too
Too bad she got into drugs so heavily. She had a good mixed-race mocha complexion.
Dexter Haven most women that have black father, and a white mother are always the hottest women due to mix.
This movie and Vanity will never die.
"Oh no, we dont burn Angel's on the fiyah" vanity was stunning! Thats another level than pretty or beautiful....she was stunning!
Most Definitely in thats my part i was in love with her still to this day Rest In Paradise my forever love and krush. It will never be one as lovely and stunning as you Denise Matthew's aka The Legendary Vanity 🌹😍💍🙏🏾🕊✝️
This was my favorite part of the movie when I was little
She’s one of the most beautiful women Ive ever seen
9/10. If she had bobs, 10/10.
Great. But this is so awful.
I just kicked back the other day and enjoyed this classic all by myself! This movie will never get old
Absolutely gorgeous. Hands down the most beautiful from the 80s
"I need a body guard....you know? Someone to guard my body!" YASSS
Ok I need some information from you!
Tina Tally: 😍😍😍
Tina Tally stupid
Tina Tally I still fantasize about vanity and tamaik I'm in the middle lol they were both hot
Tina Tally YES!!! YES!!! 👍
Fluid and light on her feet, full of energy and personality. Rest in Peace Denise Katrina Matthews
The innocence of a child is priceless. As a little girl prancing around mimicking her singing and dance moves, I had no idea this song was about sex.
All of her songs were about sex. And that's mostly because she was high on heroin most of the time.
Child I thought she was singing about crack lol even as a kid I was like what is the meaning of this song lol
Seven as an adult in f figuring it out 😊@@blaze2001
There's no words to exactly state how stunningly gorgeous this woman is
The most gorgeous black woman of the 1980s.
looks like a skeleton nowadays
@@last7509
Wooops. Was. Sorry.
There will NEVER be another woman like her.

Oi fautol eu nsse show
She wouldn't have liked you worshipping her
Never she is irreplaceable
Yep. Vanity was 110% unique and cannot even be imitated but she does inspire new artists. She was ahead of her time when you think about it.
She was so incredibly freakin naturally beautiful! Just wow!
Just watched this movie again last night. I have a total girl-crush on Denise. She was just flawless. My eyes are glued to her whenever she's on screen, whatever she's in.
I'm watching it as I write this! It's jus the best!!!
I can’t believe this beauty didn’t leave any offspring of hers behind
she was sick with no kidneys
@@johnk.6820 that's also sad to hear
@@flawlesslawless4180 Over the years of dialysis treatment she developed an infection that caused inflamation and renal failure
That's MY BABE?!
That’s always my thought! Wow!
So beautiful part of my childhood that I will never forget RIP Ms. Mathews AKA Vanity!
This movie was a staple in our house! My mom loved it. I haven't watched it since she passed. My big brother, who I nicknamed Bruce LeRoy (since he taught karate), passed away recently and he loved this movie, too! I need to find that DVD!
I bought it on Blu-ray a couple years ago.
The movie is not hard to find on DVD or blu ray because I own it 💯👍
@@michaelcarroll2399 I actually found it in my sister's stash.
R.I.P Denise Matthews you will be missed .
And so will Shogun Along With Ritchie
Love when she says, , Never say never!, My Girl, Vanity!! Continue RIHP Rock & Movie Empress! 💘
This woman was literally my childhood crush and she still makes me smile as a grown MARRIED man.😬😅She will always be loved and greatly missed❤
Vanity and Chaka khan rocked the big hair style the best since both there hairs were real they were 2 beautiful black queens 😍 in the 80s
You can tell she really loved music ,the way she accented parts with her dancing 🤍
Whenever someone says the word "Nevah" I immediately am transported back to this scene in "The Last Dragon" -- sho 'nuff! :-D
Lmao
The hottest woman in the world in the 80's no doubt about it.
She was a terrible singer though. She's definitely proof that not everybody that pop music pushed even then was always that great of a singer.
She was amazing face
Laura Charles said it was nice to meet me.
Fuck u, "Nasty Girl" sounds awesome :)
Wise Up I think you are deeply confused
Stunningly beautiful! I remember going to see this movie when it came out. Absolutely loved this song! Vanity stole the show!
She was so fine. My childhood crush, well her and Apollonia! R.I.P. Denise Mathews!
Wow cant believe my childhood crush passed away. R.I.P Vanity.

Princess of what, a rat castle?🤦♂️😂
Watching this now.... I try to watch it at least once or twice a year. I try to put it in as movie night rotation for the kids to enjoy.
The Last Dragon, I love this movie.👍Great memories😊
Love this! "I found the PLace!...Finally found the PLACE!"
She was so gorgeous may she continue to live on through her music and movies!!!
Yeah, let's hope not. I'm sure there's better things she's done in her life than the few B-flicks she appeared in or the few stripper pole songs she created..... Too bad she killed herself. What a waste.
RIP to a beautiful woman..inside and out...Jesus you got a true follower. Take care of her...
Vanity is so beautiful.

Not in her holier than though form

I miss the 80s
My favorite movie of all time. Simply perfection from beginning to end. May God protect it from sequelation.
Yea! If they wanted a sequel they should’ve just made it a couple of years later after the release so that it could be as good as the first one.
i guess she found the place..she finally found the place :( R.I.P
So sad.

OMG, I used to play this movie over and over. I absolutely loved this part of the movie and I still love Vanity. ( :
Can't believe the queen of sultriness is no longer with us. May Miss Denise Matthews rest in peace.
If you think this song is cheesy, listen to it again and then you will realize that it will be in your head all day long, it's actually a hit!
Absolutely loved this one. I hope to get to seventh heaven! I hope Denise Matthews is there happy as she was in her later years.
I was surprized to find out her life was a hell at that time, she became a heavy drug addict later on, lost her kindneys and now is an evangelist. Praise God.
DENISE,VANITY,MATTHEWS WAS TOTAL PERFECTION!
Awesome song!!!!!!!The Last Dragon movie soundtrack..Totally 80's! I love it!
Still love this! CLASSIC
I’m sorry but her features are literally perfect and her face is perfectly symmetrical. I can’t think of anyone prettier or close to being this pretty , maybe Jessica Lucas or Lauren London.
Jessica Lucas definitely could be her daughter she is gorgeous if they make a movie about her she can play her
It sucks to hear of her passing so young. I never forget her saying "You sure look like master to me" to Bruce Leroy. I love that movie!
I love this movie so much
57 isn't horrible. I've seen people die way younger than that. Especially considering what she put her body through.
When I was a kid I didn't understand the lyrics, but listening now, WOW! This brings back memories. 💕
i always liked this song, specially the guitar riff
I used to have the biggest crush on Vanity when I was a kid. I used to play this scene on the VHS tape over & over again. loved this song and movie thanks for posting
She so beautiful and sassy!
This has to quite literally be the single most 1980’s thing I’ve ever seen on TH-cam.
Defenetly gorgeous she will be missed God bless her soul

One of my favorite movies !!!! I wanted that suit he wore at the end of the movie as my prom suit!
She was a 15 on a scale of 1 to 10 .... but her real beauty was her personality.. OMG the most giving loving girl on the planet.

I used to love this part when I was kid lol. 1:41 was super funny to me though lol. Still is.

For so long I thought she was saying "You Kung Fu around in my room" lol
