August 5th, 2009Entertainment, Farrah Fawcett
Washed-up actor and Farrah Fawcett’s longtime love Ryan O’Neal says that he doesn’t deserve to be a father, and that’s understandable considering his actions at the funeral for the former Charlie’s Angel.
O’Neal revealed to Vanity Fair that he flirted with a “beautiful blonde” that turned out to be his biological daughter, Tatum O’Neal, at Fawcett’s funeral at the end of June.

During the Vanity Fair interview that will appear in the magazine’s September issue, O’Neal said he had just pushed Farrah’s casket into the hearse and watched it drive away when he caught a glimpse of the beautiful blonde who came up to hug him. He asked her if she wanted to go for a drink, and Tatum replied, “Daddy, it’s me.”
Tatum defended her father, saying that he was always a ladies’ man and they hadn’t seen each other for a few years. They had a falling out when Tatum wrote a tell-all book about her family, including Ryan O’Neal’s extensive drug abuse.
Apparently, O’Neal also didn’t bond too well with his other children.
His son, Griffin, accused him of only being by Farrah’s side when she died to try to get his hands on the Emmy Award winning actress’ fortune. Griffin described O’Neal as a “vulture residing over a carcass”, just waiting around for Farrah to die. O’Neal said he planned to marry Farrah as soon as she recovered enough to recite her vows, but she died on June 25 of anal cancer.
Farrah and O’Neal had one child together, Redmond O’Neal, who is serving time on a drug charge.
So Ryan O’Neal understands he did a lousy parenting job.
“I dont think I was supposed to be a father,” O’Neal told Vanity Fair. “Just look around at my work. They’re either in jail or should be.”By Teneshia LaFaye

June 30th, 2009Entertainment, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson’s death has overshadowed the passing of “Charlie’s Angels” star Farrah Fawcett a few hours before the King of Pop’s fatal cardiac arrest episode and three days before the sudden death of TV pitchman Billy Mays.
MJ has garnered most of the public’s and media’s attention after growing up with all of us under the glaring media spotlight for the last five decades, but let’s take some time to also remember the contributions of Fawcett, 62, and Mays, who died at 50 like Mike.

Women wanted Farrah’s golden locks when she spun around with flowing hair in TV commercials during the 1970s, and men wanted her body because of that famous poster of the 20-something beauty in a red bathing suit that sold a record 12 million copies to make her the biggest sex symbol of the decade.

At the same time, she starred as Jill Munroe alongside Jaclyn Smith and Kate Jackson on the ‘70s “Charlie’s Angels” series, and she is still the most famous of the trio despite being on the show for only one season.
She had beauty and girl-next door charm, but she proved to be a suitable dramatic actress. She played a memorable role as a battered wife in the 1984 TV movie “The Burning Bed” for the first of three Emmy Award nominations. The role inspired her into a lifetime of charity work to shed light on victims of domestic violence.
Billy Mays made a living out of bringing attention to overlooked products. He burst on the national scene in the 1990s pitching “As Seen on TV” cleaning products such as KaBoom, OxiClean and many other cleaning products. His opening line was always, “Hi. Billy Mays, here” and then he launched into his sales pitch. Remember the Shammy cloth he said could absorb anything?
In April, Mays left commercials and settled down on the Discovery Channel for the reality TV show “Pitchmen”, in which he pitches products.
So it wasn’t surprising when he gave an animated account of his hard landing during his commercial flight home to Tampa in which he explained that he bumped his head. Hours later, he was found unresponsive in his bed Sunday, and Hillsborough County Medical Examiner Vernard Adams said the pitchmen likely died of heart disease. His funeral arrangements aren’t final yet, but the ceremony is expected to take place this week. He is survived by a three-year-old daughter.
Farrah Fawcett leaves behind her 24-year-old son Redmond, who will be released from prison for three hours to attend the iconic actress’ funeral. The ceremony is scheduled for Tuesday at 4 p.m. at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in L.A. The service is private invitation-only and the media is being kept out. The family has requested donations instead of flowers to support cancer research. Donations are to be mailed to: The Farrah Fawcett Foundation, P.O. Box 6478, Beverly Hills, California 90212.
She died after losing a battle with anal cancer. Her longtime friend Alana Stewart and longtime partner Ryan O’Neal were by her bedside when she died last Thursday morning at St. Johns Health Center in Santa Monica, Calif. Steward made a documentary of Fawcett undergoing cancer treatments. The film, Farrah’s Story aired on NBC in May. Farrah died before O’Neal could marry her. He had planned to as soon as the iconic actress’ condition improved enough for her to say “yes”.
“I can’t hear a song, I can’t pass places that we were together, without being stabbed in the heart,” O’Neal said. “I won’t know this world without her.”By Teneshia LaFaye

June 25th, 2009Entertainment, Farrah Fawcett, Life
Farrah Fawcett never got to marry the love of her life before dying Thursday morning. Actor Ryan O’Neal told ABC’s 20/20 host Barbara Walters that he planned to marry the Charlie’s Angels icon, who was bedridden in a Santa Monica, Calif. hospital from a battle with cancer, when she was well enough to say “yes”.

But the 62-year-old Emmy Award winner and former Hollywood sex symbol’s condition never improved enough to speak, and so Farrah never married twice-wed Ryan. In fact, O’Neal revealed to Walters that Fawcett mistook him for their 24-year-old son, Redmond, who actually had a temporary release from prison to visit his dying mother att. John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, Calif.
After her nine-year marriage to Six Million Dollar Man Lee Majors failed in 1982, Fawcett and O’Neal began dating and she gave birth to Redmond in 1985. O’Neal, who starred in 1984 divorce movie Irreconcilable Differences, had two failed marriages in the 1960s and 1970s.

The couple went their separate ways in 1997 and reunited in 2001, five years before Fawcett was diagnosed with anal cancer.

Farrah died before Ryan, 68, could make the ultimate expression of his love by marrying her.
This is a sad lesson for men who hesitate to walk down the aisle with the woman who’s stuck by them and maybe even bore children. So stop procrastinating and make your loyal lady an honest woman.By Teneshia LaFaye
