What were your thoughts and reaction when you found out news of actress Farrah Fawcett passed away from anal cancer on June 25, 2009?

For those who don’t know, Farrah Fawcett was an American actress and artist best known for her iconic role as Jill Munroe on the hit 1970s series Charlie's Angels. With her flowing blonde hair and beautiful smile, she became a huge star and sex symbol during that decade. Her famous poster of her in a red one-piece swimsuit, released in 1977, sold millions of copies and solidified her status as a cultural icon, leaving an indelible mark on popular culture. Although she continued acting in films and television in the decades that followed, battling cancer in her later years, Fawcett's role on Charlie's Angels defined her career and cemented her image as one of the biggest pop culture influences and sex symbols of the 1970s era. Her passing from anal cancer in 2009 at age 62 garnered massive media attention.

The same place when we heard that Michael Jackson had passed away.

Where were you on June 25th, 2009 when you heard the news of Michael Jackson’s passing? How did you hear about it?

[EmmaMary]

Gosh... Thank you so very much indeed for the SO.

I had watched a program all about her and her rectal cancer.

She even went to another country to get cured, but it got the best of her and she died from it.

I wasn't shocked because I had seen the program all about her fighting her cancer.

I was shocked when I found out she had rectal cancer or just cancer period.

You don't hear about rectal cancer very often. I'm not sure what could have caused it. Especially because she wasn't very old when she contracted it.

See what anal sex does to you? 😯

I felt bad and the news of Farrah's death should have been the lead story that day except that Michael Jackson also died the same way. Farrah was known to be sick and likely to die, but Jackson's death at 50 was completely unexpected.

I remember it was the same day that Michael Jackson died.

Thanks for the MHO😎

I like Farrah fawcet especially in small sacrifices that was a great film

[handsomelad70]

I thought it horrible (I've lost many relatives, including both sisters to cancer), but Farrah's passing received about one one-millionth the publicity of Michael Jackson's death the same day.

[LiamJHayden]

I did not know who she was at the time and the news was overshadowed by the passing of Michael Jackson the same day.

[Daniela1982]

She had her 15 minutes of fame. Like all of us, we don't look good in the grave.

[rachel776]

same day as Michael Jackson

[Anonymous]

Yeah, I remember her performing at the William Shatner roast not long after her diagnosis was made public. And that was like 3 years before.

[KrakenAttackin]

She was a bombshell and the very definition of "beauty" for the 70's and 80's.

[FunkyMonkee]

It was really stupid because she could've easily cured it!

[Oliverlogan263]

Anal cancer can be cured?

[FunkyMonkee]

Sure can! I cured mom's cancer and she had it BAD!! HUGE green and purple welts all over her back & chest! Within a few weeks (6 or 8) of taking this stuff, she was clean!! I gave the recipe to a guy here at GAG 2 months ago for his sister who was about to die from it and he told me a month later that her antigens have reduced about 50%.

[Oliverlogan263]

Oh wow that’s miraculous

[FunkyMonkee]

And it's really cheap and really simple to make. The hardest part is to bottle it. It foams up LIKE CRAZY!!

[SotiCoto]

Never heard of her. Don't give a shit about her butt-cancer death.

[DarkLegacy]

I never though of it at all. She is nothing to do with me of course so i am indifferent.

[rienna888]

her hair is fucking amazing

[Dargil]

I was 11. I didn't care.

[Iron_Man]

Sad 😔..
