Actress Farrah Fawcett, who became an icon of 1970s US television, has died of cancer in Los Angeles aged 62, her spokesman has confirmed.
Fawcett is best known for starring in Charlie's Angels, and in later years for hard-hitting TV and stage roles.
Her battle with illness was chronicled in the television documentary Farrah's Story earlier this year.
Her partner Ryan O'Neal said: "After a long and brave battle with cancer, our beloved Farrah has passed away."
Certainly high up on most of the schoolboy crushes when I was at school. RIP.
