RIP – No more pain – Ananda Lewis, 52, former MTV VJ and host of “The Ananda Lewis Show,” Ends her 7-year battle with Canc3r.
Ananda Lewis had di3d at the age of 52 after losing her nearly seven-year battle with breast c@ncer.
The former MTV VJ — also known for The Ananda Lewis Show and her work on The Insider — passed away on Wednesday, June 11, according to a Facebook post made by her sister Lakshmi Emory.
Lakshmi shared a black and white portrait of Ananda with the caption: “She’s free, and in His heavenly arms. Lord, rest her soul [prayer emoji]’
Ananda announced to fans in late 2020 that she’d been privately battling stage 3 breast c@ncer for two years.
She also admitted that she’d avoided getting regular mammograms due to fear of radiation exposure.
Last October, Ananda confirmed that her c@ncer had advanced to stage IV after deciding not to undergo a double mastectomy when she was first diagnosed.
She told CNN that she had originally planned to ‘keep my tumor and try to work it out of my body a different way.’
But when her tumor eventually metastasized, Ananda realized that she probably ‘should have’ gone through with the life-saving surgery.
