I can’t say I was unprepared for this moment, but it still hit me like a punch in the gut.
I was 15 when Charlie’s Angels came out and I already had The Poster. (My dad eagerly bought one each for my brother and me.) I watched the show, I clipped her pictures out of magazines, read books about her, I devoured everything Farrah. She was my Marilyn Monroe. These photos remind me how beautiful she was inside AND out!

I was not a “Charlie’s Angels” fan, but of course anyone who grew up in the 70′s remembers Farrah. I first remember her from the “Ultrabright” toothpaste commercials.
“Mother had a feeling, I might be too appealing, so mother never told me about Ultrabright! Mother thought that all the whitening would make me too exciting, so mother never told me about Ultrabright.”
I’ll be on vacation for the next week or so. Happy movie-watching!
