Actor, model and 90's cult icon Cindyana Santangelo passed earlier this year, but I just found out about it via user Flabbergast.
She never reached Hollywood levels of fame in a direct way, but made appearances on television shows. Her relevance here at The Signal Watch is that Santangelo is the subject of what is perennially and by far my most popular post on this site, "Whatever Happened to the Girl in the Stop Sign Shorts?"
We sought her out as the dancer and lip-syncher in the video for Young MC's "Bust a Move" and learned she was also the voice and face at the start of Jane's Addiction's single "Stop".
Santangelo passed at her Malibu home in March at the age of 58.
In whatever odd parasocial way I was aware of Santangelo, I am very sorry to hear she's passed. If my site's numbers are any indication, she certainly had her fans, and I hope she knew that.
