Aisha is a character in Saints Row and Saints Row 2. She is a famous R&B singer who hangs out with the 3rd Street Saints.

[edit] Description

Aisha was Stilwater's "local girl done good." She had experienced a meteoric rise that had taken her from the slums of Saint's Row to a promising career in the R&B music industry. Aisha was in the process of following up on her previous hit CD, "Avarice," with another hit CD called "The Other Six." "The Other Six" had already spawned two chart topping tracks: "Leave The Ho" and "DFM Like I'm Your Wife."

Aisha was signed with Kingdom Come Records; a company that served as the public front for the Vice Kings. To her horror, she had learned that the glamorous life isn't all that cracked up as it was supposed to be, as she related tales of extortion and manipulation to her sometime boyfriend, Johnny Gat, in the hope that he would somehow help her get out of the music business.

Johnny's plan was to fake Aisha's death, but in typical Gat fashion, his plan included destroying the Kingdom Come Records building with a car bomb. Aisha had a younger sister that the Protagonist rescued from a Vice King human trafficking plot presumably created by Tanya Winters to gain more workers for her brothel in Prawn Court.

After her "death", Benjamin King told Warren Williams to throw together a memorial box set, claiming that fans will "Eat that shit up".

Five years later, Aisha is a more mature woman. She barely ever leaves her house anymore, as she is still faking her death to the public. She lives with Gat, who prides himself on being her protector. When the 3rd Street Saints where busy taking care of the Ronin, Aisha's life is once again put in danger when Gat brought in a spying Ronin member into her house to question, though he quickly killed him when no information was given. Ronin lieutenant Jyunichi saw Gat and Aisha getting rid of the corpse and found a weakness to the Saints.

He later kidnapped her in her own house and interrogated her about the Ronin's stolen casino money. Unbeknown to Jyunichi, Gat and the Protagonist were headed to the house during this. When both were coming in, Jyunichi asked her to be silent and she wouldn't be harmed. When he drew his katana out, she sacrificed herself by yelling to Gat of the Ronin's presence. Turning to her, Jyunichi decapitated her with his sword. Because of her sacrifice, the Boss and Johnny had an equal playing field during the large fight, although Johnny was still critically wounded. An ambulence was too slow, so the Boss and another 3rd Street Saint take Johnny to the hospital while fighting off hoards of Ronin. During the car chase Johnny mumbles about Aisha, claiming he had to save her and protect her, even after her obvious death.

After this, Gat blamed himself for her death, but eventually accepts her fate.

[edit] Trivia

  • In the opening cutscene one of the guards claim his daughter sits in her room listening to Aisha albums all day. To which the other guard jokes about how a dead women is still selling albums.
  • A pedestrian can be heard saying that Aisha'a head was being sold on ebay. Another hint that she was decapitated.
  • Right before the roses fall to the ground as they were cut along with Aisha's neck, there is a loud thud, comfirming her decapitation as her head hit the floor.
  • On close observation, Aisha's headless body can be seen lying on the floor a couple of times during the cutscene in which she is killed, including the moment Jyunichi starts approaching Gat (to the right of Jyunichi's feet as he's walking.)
