Pasha Bleasdell, Star of Nelly's 'Hot in Herre' Video, Dead at 38
Model Pasha Bleasdell, a mainstay of some of hip-hop's hottest videos, has passed away at the age of 38.
On Monday, prolific music video director Director X confirmed his friend and collaborator had succumbed to a brain tumor on Saturday.
"We lost a friend yesterday," he wrote on Instagram in a moving post accompanied by videos of her past work. "Pasha Bleasdell passed away from a brain tumor June 4th 2022 11:59pm. If you made videos in 2000’s or were around to watch them you know Pasha."
He added that he put Bleasdell, who he met doing background work on the set of Donnell Jones “Where I Want To Be," in a million videos and that they spent just as much time hanging out, and she never brought drama to the set of life.

"She was always genuine and cool," Director X said. "You never know when the last time you speak to some one 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 ⛅️🕊."
While Bleasdell starred in multiple videos — including Sean Paul's "Gimme the Light," 50 Cent's "P.I.M.P," and Donell Jones' "Where I Wanna Be" — she is perhaps most remembered for her work on Nelly's video for his smash hit "Hot in Herre."
