Farrah Fawcett


The news of Farrah Fawcett’s death will be greatly overshadowed by the news of Michael Jackson’s, but two entertainment icons dead in one day. That’s pretty tragic.

I remember wanting to be Farrah Fawcett when I was a little girl. She could kick some serious butt! Charlie’s Angles was one of my favorite TV shows. One of the things I liked about it so much was that it was a show that my dad and I both liked to watch. There wasn’t a whole lot of stuff on TV like that when I was a kid -- stuff that would entertain both me and my dad.

She was beautiful and had the perfect hair in the late 70s, early 80s. I remember standing in front of the mirror trying to get the perfect feathered look -- just like Farrah Fawcett -- then grabbing the can of Aqua Net to keep it all in place.

Farrah learned three years ago that she had anal cancer. She went through chemotherapy and radiation treatments, and was declared cancer-free in 2007. That didn’t last long, though. She found out a few months later the cancer was back. She sought out alternative cancer therapies at the end of 2007. Farrah Fawcett died on June 25, 2009 at the age of 62.
