farah fawcett

i was going to mention ferrah leni fawcett's memories in the same journal that i wrote mj's but i think both of them deserved their own journals...so here i am writing a different one for ferrah.

i remember fawcett mainly for the six million dollar man...after which she was married to lee majors and appeared in charlie's angels as ff majors. she was romantically involved with two men i absolutely loved...majors and ryan oneal. majors and she separated not long after their union, but oneal stayed with her till her death in an on and off relationship.

she was a sex symbol with a body to die for. her hairstyle became an international trend with young women everywhere who were emulating her hairdo. even though she wanted to be known beyond the body and the hair...she became pretty much an underrated actress..men would remember her nude pose in the playboy which caused scandals, especially with a roman catholic background like hers.

a friend faiz, asked me if i liked her because she wasnt particularly liked..and my answer was this. you dont think about liking or not liking someone especially if you have grown up with that person..and that person becomes a part of you..a part of your growing up years..when such a thing happens, its beyond like..we dont really know if we need to like a person....we just know she or he is a part of us.

she was an icon, not as much as mj was..but i couldnt not write a little about her. she acted in many movies which got her nominations especially in the movies `extremities' and `the burning bed' which i hope transformed her from the pin-up sex symbol to an acclaimed actress. however charlie's angels kate hudson, farah fawcett and jaclyn smith will stay with me forever. unfortunately both hudson and fawcett suffered from cancer. fawcett lived to document her battle with cancer before leaving us finally with only memories.

both icons of the 70's...an era..which will soon be forgotten. i still think my generation had the best of performers...lol..i can be biased of course. hehehe
