Say good bye to two legends




It seems that the news of the death of one famous celebrity is not shocking enough. Another news of the death of a more famous celebrity ensues in the late afternoon. Both Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson die today with few hours apart. Farrah succumbs to cancer and Michael allegedly dies of some complication after a cardiac arrest.

Of both tragedies, Michael's death is least expected. His antics derailed his career, throwing him to the bottom. He started his career at the age of 6. His father Joe allegedly often abused his children. Perhaps, that explained Michael's eccentric behavior. The traumas screwed up his mind and turned him into a freak show later in life. (I chose to post a pic of Michael before he underwent a series of cosmetic surgery.)

Farrah was the most gorgeous Charlie's Angels of all. I watched that show all the time as a kid. The curly blonde locks were her trademark in the 70's. Women between 18 and 40 wore the Fawcett's hairstyle on the street. Too bad that Farrah had no big show following Charlie's Angels. But she didn't need it. The show turned her into an icon overnight.
