Glamorous Canadian ex-model & lead singer of all girl group "Vanity 6" (born Denise Katrina Matthews) from German and African/American parentage. Vanity first appeared onscreen in the biographical tale of writer Jack London titled Klondike Fever (1980), before venturing into more gritty territory such as the slasher film Terror Train (1980), the very odd chick flick Tanya's Island (1980), a B-Grade martial arts film entitled The Last Dragon (1985) and the totally weird Never Too Young to Die (1986). However, for my money, her best two performances were as the naive stripper assisting blackmail victim Roy Scheider in the under rated thriller 52 Pick Up (1986) and then as a seductive, smart talking, night club singer teaming up with cop Carl Weathers to defeat murderous car tycoon Craig T. Nelson in the violent Action Jackson (1988). Unfortunately, the remainder of Vanity's film work was of the "straight to video" variety and she only scored minor roles in several low budget thrillers such as Neon City (1992) and Da Vinci's War (1993). In late 1995 Vanity turned her back and Hollywood and the entertainment industry and has since dedicated her life to the Christian faith.
