A well-known video vixen, who made a name for herself in the 90’s has passed away. Pasha Bleasdell, who is probably best known for her appearance in Nelly’s “Hot in Herre” music video, has tragically passed away from a brain tumor, multiple reports have confirmed.
As one of the most iconic and memorable video vixens, Pasha starred in many early 2000s videos, and made a name for herself as a fashion icon and music video star.
Bleasdell was dubbed a “video vixen,” which is a title given to women who starred in a lot of hip-hop music videos at the time. Many video vixens also doubled as models, singers, or actors.
Arguably the most famous video Pasha was in is Hot in Herre, by Nelly. The song was Nelly’s first number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and it peaked at number four in the UK. Essentially, it was a smash hit, and is still played today. Pasha appeared in dozens of other videos, most notably Pimp alongside rapper 50 Cent and Gimme The Light by Sean Paul.
She was also in Tit 4 Tat by Fabolous featuring Pharrell Williams.
Most recently, it was featured in the new Netflix movie Senior Year, starring Rebel Wilson.
According to famed music video and movie Director X, who directed Pasha multiple times throughout her career, confirmed that she passed away from…
…a brain tumor. He described her as “genuine and cool” and spoke about his experience working with her on sets and the “wild ride” they went on together.
Her appearances in music videos made Pasha a fashion icon, with girls all over the world taking style tips from her.
One fan tweeted: “Naw that eye contact Pasha gave Nelly In the hot here video was so powerful. RIP to her. She made that video!”
Director X posted on Instagram about Pasha’s notoriety. He stated that “if you made videos in 2000’s or were around to watch them, you know Pasha.”
He explained how he met Pasha doing background work on the set of Donnell Jones’ Where I Want to Be. “From there, we put her in the mix,” Director X wrote.
The post continued to read: “I’ve put her in a million videos and spent just as much time hanging out. She was always genuine and cool. Never brought drama to set of life. You never know when the last time you speak to someone will be the last time you speak. I hold on to my memories of you with love. Rest in Power Pasha January 24th, 1984 – June 4th, 2022.”
A brain tumor is a growth of abnormal cells in the brain. The anatomy of the brain is very complex, with different parts responsible for different nervous system functions. Brain tumors can develop in any part of the brain or skull, including its protective lining, the underside of the brain (skull base), the brainstem, the sinuses, and the nasal cavity, and many other areas. There are more than 120 different types of tumors that can develop in the brain, depending on what tissue they arise from.
All brain cancers are tumors, but not all brain tumors are cancerous. Noncancerous brain tumors are called benign brain tumors.
Metastatic brain tumors, also called secondary brain tumors, are malignant tumors that originate as cancer elsewhere in the body and then metastasize (spread) to the brain. Metastatic brain tumors are about four times more common than primary brain tumors. They can grow rapidly, crowding or invading nearby brain tissue.
Common cancers that can spread to the brain are:
Different parts of the brain control different functions, so brain tumor symptoms will vary depending on the tumor’s location.
The tumor’s size and how fast it’s growing also affect which symptoms a person will experience.
In general, the most common symptoms of a brain tumor may include:
Brain tumors don’t always cause symptoms.
In fact, the most common brain tumor in adults, meningioma, often grows so slowly that it goes unnoticed.
Tumors may not start causing symptoms until they become large enough to interfere with healthy tissues inside the brain.
