Farrah Fawcett Dies at 62

Much like Ed McMahon’s recent death, everyone had to be expecting to hear the news of Farrah Fawcett’s death and today, she became a true angel at the age of 62. The actress had been battling anal cancer. The Texas born beauty started doing television commercials in the late ‘60s/early ‘70s after a publicist saw her photo in the University of Texas at Austin “Ten Most Beautiful Coeds” photo shoot. She appeared in commercials for Noxema, Ultra Brite, Wella Balsam, and Mercury Cougar. She started landing small spots on television shows such as “I Dream of Jeanie” and “Owen Marshall: … Continue reading →

Star Updates: Gisele Bundchen and Farrah Fawcett

It looks as though Gisele Bundchen may finally be getting her ultimate wish. Reports say that the supermodel is expecting her first child with husband Tom Brady. In other news, Bridget Moynahan is hoping that once Bundchen gives birth she will leave her 18-month-old son with Brady alone. I know a few people who’ll drink to that. You’ll recall that Brady dumped Moynahan right before she discovered she was pregnant with his child. The football star then hooked up with Bundchen, and the two recently got hitched twice-—once in California, and again, last month in Costa Rica. The Victoria’s Secret … Continue reading →

Farrah Fawcett Back in Hospital and Michelle Obama Back on TV–Maybe

Farrah Fawcett is facing yet another setback in her long battle against cancer. According to reports, the 62-year-old former “Charlie’s Angels” star is back in a Los Angeles hospital. Several papers are reporting that the actress was admitted Thursday with complications associated with cancer. The TV star was first diagnosed with the insidious disease in 2006 and has undergone chemotherapy and aggressive experimental treatments in the years since. Fawcett received good news when her cancer went into remission several months after her initial diagnosis, but the disease returned in 2007 leading the beauty to seek alternative treatments in Germany. Fawcett’s … Continue reading →

Rumor Report: Demi and Ashton, Farrah Fawcett and Bobby Brown

Demi Moore is warning you not to believe the rumors that say she and her husband Ashton Kutcher are adopting a baby. The 46-year-old is blasting the National Enquirer for reporting that she and her hunky husband failed to conceive a child naturally and were preparing to adopt a baby. According to the National Enquirer story, Moore and Kutcher “always resisted adoption because they wanted a baby of their own” adding, “but now everything has changed… after all the disappointments and the IVF treatments, everyone is really excited that they are making their dream come true. It’s a win-win situation.” … Continue reading →

What Do Farrah Fawcett and Britney Spears Have in Common?

Other than the fact that they once shared the same hair color. It appears that both famous blondes have been victims of snooping medical employees at UCLA Medical Center. In a previous blog I detailed the ugly incident involving medical staff that leaked private information from Britney Spears’ files to the press. More than a dozen employees were fired or disciplined in that matter. Now, UCLA officials say they just fired another employee for snooping in Farrah Fawcett’s medical records. And get this… it was Fawcett who brought the leak to her doctor’s attention. According to the Los Angeles Times, … Continue reading →

Farrah Fawcett Takes Cancer Battle To Germany

Farrah Fawcett’s cancer may have returned, but she says don’t count her out yet. The former “Charlie’s Angels” star is not only traveling abroad to secure reinforcements in her battle against the deadly disease, she’s also videotaping the experience for a possible documentary. Fawcett is currently in Germany receiving “alternative treatments” for her cancer. And according to Craig Nevius, the producer of Fawcett’s reality show “Chasing Farrah,” the 60-year-old actress has been responding well to the new treatment. Nevius declined to reveal the type of treatment Fawcett is receiving, but did say that the regime is not one that is … Continue reading →

Farrah Vs. Cancer—Round Two

There are two things about hearing that Farrah Fawcett’s cancer had returned that really set me off and both involve the press (more accurately, the tabloid press). Before I proceed with my rant, for those of you who don’t normally follow celebrities’ health concerns, former “Charlie’s Angels” star Farrah Fawcett was diagnosed with anal cancer in September 2006. After undergoing both chemotherapy and surgery she was declared cancer-free three months ago. But, sadly, just a few days ago she learned that the cancer had returned. According to Fawcett’s close friend, the actress got the news after a routine three-month checkup … Continue reading →

Redmond O’Neal Gets Rehab

Posted on by

Redmond O’Neal, the son of actors Ryan O’Neal and Farrah Fawcett, is getting another chance at getting clean. The 24 year old was arrested on April 5th for drug possession. He took a friend to visit another friend in jail and when the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station officers did a routine check, they found Redmond in possession of heroin. Redmond learned this week that he will go to an intense rehab program. The program will include frequent drug testing and court appearances. If Redmond can stay clean this time, he will no longer be on probation and have his … Continue reading →

Star Spring Milestones

Buffy is going to be a mommy. Sarah Michelle Gellar is reportedly expecting her first child with her famous husband Freddie Prinze Jr. The former Buffy the Vampire Slayer star is reportedly due to give birth in October. Gellar and Prinze have been married since 2002. It doesn’t look as though Kate Hudson will be following in Gellar’s footsteps. The actress and her on-again/off-again boyfriend Owen Wilson have reportedly split for good. Hmmm… sounds familiar. No, really, Wilson says this is really it this time. According to In Touch Weekly, the couple is done forever. The reason: Hudson recently turned … Continue reading →

Ryan and Redmond O’Neal Arrested on Suspected Drug Charges

Not long ago, I blogged about the recent drug related arrest of actress Mackenzie Phillips. Like Robert Downey, Jr., she was raised in what I consider to be an abusive household where drugs were frequently used by at least one of their parents. You probably know that Mackenzie and Robert have had lifelong struggles with drug addiction (although I am glad to report that Robert has been clean for several years). I know some will say that the addiction is biological, but I think environment has a lot to do with it as well. That being said let me move … Continue reading →
