AceShowbiz - After the sad news of James Van Der Beek's passing at the age of 48, Kesha has taken a moment to reflect on their memorable collaboration in the “Blow” music video. The former Dawson’s Creek star and the pop sensation shared a vibrant moment back in 2011 that she cherishes.

On Wednesday, February 11, Kesha shared two heartfelt photos on her Instagram Stories featuring Van Der Beek. In one image, he is playfully pointing at the singer, while in another, they are seen embracing each other, adorned with red heart emojis. These snapshots were taken during a Las Vegas red carpet event in May 2011, just three months following the release of their iconic “Blow” music video.

The video, which has become a fan favorite, showcased Kesha and Van Der Beek in a whimsical and humorous light. In a delightful twist on his typical teen heartthrob persona, Van Der Beek displayed his comedic side alongside the pop star. “Well, well, well. If it isn’t James Van Der Douche,” Kesha quips during a dialogue exchange. In response, Van Der Beek cleverly remarks, “I don’t appreciate you slander-Beeking my name, Ke-dollar-sign-ha,” poking fun at Kesha's stylized name.

The video culminates in a humorous scene where Van Der Beek's head is mounted on the wall as Kesha laughs with her unicorn-headed friends, leaving a lasting impression of their playful chemistry. “Blow” achieved significant commercial success, reaching the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at No. 7 in 2011.

Sadly, James Van Der Beek's family confirmed his death on Wednesday after a courageous public battle with cancer over the last two years. “Our beloved James David Van Der Beek passed peacefully this morning,” the family stated in an emotional Instagram post. “He met his final days with courage, faith, and grace. There is much to share regarding his wishes, love for humanity and the sacredness of time. Those days will come. For now, we ask for peaceful privacy as we grieve our loving husband, father, son, brother, and friend.”

In the wake of Van Der Beek's passing, friends and fans took to social media to express their condolences. Notably, *NSYNC member Lance Bass shared, “We are sending your beautiful family so much love. Safe travels, James. You made this world a better place.”

Actress Reese Witherspoon also expressed her sorrow, stating, “Sending all my angels to help carry him home … you and your beautiful family are in my heart,” while Jennifer Garner added, “What a heartbreaking loss. So much love to you, Kimberly, and to …”
