# Where Are They Now: 90s Video Vixens Today

Remember those iconic video vixens who dominated music videos in the late 90s and early 2000s? These women were more than just beautiful faces – they were cultural forces who parlayed their on-screen charisma into diverse careers. Here’s what happened to some of the most memorable video models.

**Elise Donovan** first captured attention in Webbie’s “Bad Bitch” video alongside Trina. The Jamaican-born beauty later gained fame on “Bad Girls Club” season 8, where fans dubbed her “the realest” on the show.

Today, Elise has transitioned to luxury real estate, working as a specialist with KT Luxury Group. She also launched her own swimwear line and boasts an estimated net worth of $1 million.

**Chanta Ive**, who appeared in videos for Usher, Lil Wayne, and Snoop Dogg, proved she had brains to match her beauty. After studying applied mathematics at Coppin State University, she expanded her career into acting with roles in films like “After Hours” and “The Coalition.” Active on social media and maintaining her brand, Chanta has accumulated a $1 million net worth.

**Manushka**, a Haitian-American beauty who started as a go-go dancer at Miami’s Liquid nightclub, first gained attention in George Michael’s “Freakin'” video.

The former Miss Caribbean America expanded into television, co-starring on Food Network’s “Private Chefs of Beverly Hills” and launching her catering business “Single Serving.” Her latest venture, “The Lemons Theory,” provides luxury picnic services, contributing to her million-dollar net worth.

**Kim Porter**, most famous for her complex relationship with Sean “Diddy” Combs, appeared in music videos including Jodeci’s “Forever My Lady.” Their relationship produced four children but ended in 2007 after Diddy’s affair with Jennifer Lopez.

Tragically, Porter passed away in 2018 from pneumonia at age 47, leaving behind a $2 million estate and ongoing controversies about her relationship with Diddy.

**Drea** continues making headlines for both her business ventures and personal life. She faced backlash after joking about Megan Thee Stallion’s shooting incident, resulting in her being dropped from Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty.

Recently, she’s been dating 22-year-old NBA star Jaylen Green (she’s 39), with whom she welcomed a baby in May 2024. Beyond the drama, she’s built an empire with her swimwear line Mint Swim, clothing brand Fine Ass Girls, and newest venture, Beige and Coco.

**Vanessa Bryant** met Kobe Bryant while working as a background dancer in music videos. Their whirlwind romance led to marriage in 2001, and following Kobe’s tragic death, Vanessa has managed his $600 million estate and Granity Studios.

**Melissa Ford**, famous for appearances in Jay-Z’s “Knock Yourself Out” video, transitioned to acting in movies like “Three Can Play That Game” and co-hosts the Joe Budden Podcast. With an estimated $2 million net worth, she recently launched her own podcast “Hot and Bothered.”

**Donna Evans** from Lloyd Banks’ “Karma” and Neo’s “She Got Her Own” videos expanded into acting with roles in “Friday After Next” and “Soul Plane.” With her own record label, Rosand, and a net worth around $1 million, Evans continues building her brand and producing films.
