Michelle Pfeiffer was among the many who shared their sadness on social media in the wake of Coolio's death. As seen in the video above, the "Frankie and Johnny" actor uploaded a clip on Instagram of the rapper's video for "Gangsta's Paradise," in which she stars. For the thumbnail, she attached a vintage photo of the pair looking happy to be in each other's company. In her caption, Pfeiffer shared a touching tribute that proved she thought highly of Coolio.

"Heartbroken to hear of the passing of the gifted artist @coolio. A life cut entirely too short," she wrote. "As some of you may know I was lucky enough to work with him on Dangerous Minds in 1995. He won a Grammy for his brilliant song on the soundtrack – which I think was the reason our film saw so much success." Pfeiffer recalled working with the star and said he was "nothing but gracious" to be around. "30 years later I still get chills when I hear the song. Sending love and light to his family. Rest in Power, Artis Leon Ivey Jr.," she continued.

This isn't the first time Pfeiffer has spoken about Coolio in recent years. During a 2021 televised appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," she discussed "Gangsta's Paradise" and expressed her love for the song. Prior to shooting the video, Pfeiffer admitted she had never heard of him or that song and appeared in the video purely because of her role in "Dangerous Minds." When asked whether the pair stayed in touch, she admitted they had not.
