Screen star Fawcett dies aged 62 (BBC News)
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.

I just saw that. It is very sad. I had been watching her story develop.
She had such a will to live.

Lindsey Wagner was the Bionic woman, Farrah was married to Lee Majors the Bionic Man (6million dollar man)

No one mentioned "
Extremities" either, she was in the play and the film version of that. An absolute tour de force performance, spooky.

Very sad indeed. I wonder if I still have my poster of her stored away somewhere.

I find it so sad that someone as great and iconic as her was overshadowed by Michael Jackson later that day... I mean, on this forum alone, her thread has one page and the other has 14. I barely saw anything on the tv about her death...

Miss K, this topic is creditably devoid of jokes, puns, bashing of the deceased or criticism of her lifestyle. Instead it contains tributes and honest sadness at the passing of an exceptional woman. Quantity ain't always where it's at.

Apparently that poster sold 12 million copies.

I had that poster, as alot of girls my age to! Not for the same reasons as guys, but we all wanted to be her, look like her, and idiolized her for being who she was, and heck, she was married to Lee Majors (the Bionic man), like who didn't want that?

I prefer to remember her as she was on my wall as a teenager. Its hard to jackoff to the image of a dead lady with anal cancer in a coffin. I am into a lot of things, but necromancy is not one of them.
