Vanity Denise Mathews has passed

Rumour? The rumour is true. RIP Wild Animal.
This morning my beautiful friend Denise Matthews passed away. She was the kindest, most loving friend one could have ever had or met along the way. She was also an entertainer, a writer, a model, an actress and a beauty queen. She will be miss by the world for her ingenuity and beauty. God be with you Denise, I love you always. Rest In Peace.

Nick Ashford was someone I greatly admired, had the honor of knowing, and was the real-life inspiration for Cowboy Curtis' hair. RIP Nick. - Pee Wee Herman

I haven't seen anything reported by any offical media. However, I have been looking on Twitter and people who are close to Denise say that she has in fact passed away. I was really hoping it's not true (and I still hope it isn't) but it's looking more and more likely that she has in fact passed away. Very sad (if in fact true).

TMZ reports:

Vanity, lead singer of the '80s girl group Vanity 6, has died after years of battling kidney failure and, more recently, an abdominal illness.

Vanity, whose real name was Denise Katrina Matthews, passed away in a Fremont, CA hospital on Monday, according to sources close to her family. A few months ago she set up a GoFundMe page, and said she'd been diagnosed with sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis -- an inflammation of the small intestines.

She also battled crack addiction in the '90s, and after a 1994 OD her kidneys were shot. She had to undergo nearly daily dialysis treatments.

She was 57.
