Nostalgic celebrity worship


It's always a shock when you hear that a particular type of celebrity has died.

The type of celebrity that you thought was forever young, the memory that you have is one when you were sitting on the floor of the living room watching the telly on a Saturday night. Eight years old sitting with your wee brother and sister watching the black and white rented telly, Mum on the sofa, Dad in the pub.

I always have a soft spot for showbiz stars of the seventies. After all, I am a child of the seventies.
So when I heard on the news that Farah Fawcett had passed away earlier today my heart sank.

Good job you posted that pic, might have thought you were talking about MJ and moved on asap.

I didn't realise until reading the blogs this morning that Farrah had died. I knew she was dying but it is still a shock. Drivel though Charlie's Angels was it was always watchable just those delectable girls.

Sad, very sad.

I marginally preferred Jacklyn Smith in Charlie's Angels, but I'm still very saddened to hear of her passing.
