Farrah Fawcett was the type of woman, who women wanted to be and men wanted to be with. The actress lived an extraordinary life, one that was almost as beautiful as she was. Tonight at 9p on A&E, Farrah Fawcett Forever takes a look at her life from when she was a child in Texas up until her death from anal cancer in 2009.
Farrah Fawcett was born in Corpus Christi on Feb 02, 1947. She was a beautiful girl with a happy life. When she went to the University of Texas, she was so popular that everyone knew who she was by the end of her freshman year. In fact, even Hollywood came calling for her. She did not return their calls at first because she was enjoying college so much. Eventually, she does. Once she does, her life changes forever.
She starts out doing commercials and bit roles. While doing so she meets Lee Majors, who was one of the biggest television actors at the time. The two of them fall in love and eventually get married. Her nephew talks about that special day and shares pictures from it.
Talking about pictures, her tennis coach reveals how her infamous red bathing suit poster came about. Believe it or not, that was the last shot of the day. She was an international star just because of that poster, but her most famous role was about to happen.
That role was Charlie’s Angels. After the first season, she quit the show. Only to be forced back because she was under contract. Her husband wanted her to be a stay at home wife. However, her acting career was climbing while he was declining. It would be the beginning of the end of their marriage. Little did he know what would happen when he brought Ryan O’Neal over for dinner one night.
The two of them started a love affair that had plenty of ups and downs, but it gave her greatest joy. Her son Redmond. Everything was going so well for them and her career. She was finally being seen as a serious actress and receiving multiple awards for her work.
Then the Northridge earthquake happened and her perfect life was suddenly not so perfect. Her house was split in two during the quake, she split from O’Neal, her son was doing hard drugs, her mom got sick and died, and then she was diagnosed with cancer.
She decided to let every in on her cancer journey by filming what she was going through. She let strangers into her life as she bravely fought for her life. A battle she would eventually lose on June 25, 2009.
Farrah Fawcett Forever includes never before seen photos, old and new interviews with those closest to her including herself and home videos. We will also learn little tidbits like how she got her infamous hairstyle and so much more. If you ever wanted to know about the gorgeous, intelligent woman behind the image, this is the documentary you must watch. Even if you are not a fan, it is nice to see the story of a strong woman in Hollywood who has beauty and brains.

Ariana Grande posed for the cover of Vogue and she was missing things from her signature look. She wore a huge black sun hat over her notorious ponytail. However, that is not why the singer looks so different, she is also not wearing her thick black eyeliner. Who knew the cat eyes make such a difference, but on her they do.
I almost didn’t recognize her. But that is Annie Leibovitz thing. She finds a way to make her subjects shine, and that is definitely what she did here. The iconic photographer also turned the camera on Grande’s best friend. Grande had this to say about the shoot, “my favorite part of all of this is how much Annie loved shooting Toulouse and wanted him in the shot… i was like ‘am i doing this right? i’m not a model at all, is this okay?’ and she was like ‘omg yea you’re actually done but if i could have a moment more of Toulouse’s time’.”
You cannot have a cover without a story. She talks about how her life has changed since the Manchester bombing that left 23 of her concertgoers dead in May of 2017. When asked about it, she humbly says, “It’s not my trauma.” Then she continued with tears in her eyes, “It’s those families’. It’s their losses, and so it’s hard to just let it all out without thinking about them reading this and reopening the memory for them.”
Then she paused to add, “I’m proud that we were able to raise a lot of money with the intention of giving people a feeling of love or unity, but at the end of the day, it didn’t bring anyone back. Everyone was like, Wow, look at this amazing thing, and I was like, What the f*ck are you guys talking about? We did the best we could, but on a totally real level we did nothing. I’m sorry. I have a lot to say that could probably help people that I do want to share, but I have a lot that I still need to process myself and will probably never be ready to talk about. For a long time I didn’t want to talk to anyone about anything, because I didn’t want to think about anything. I kind of just wanted to bury myself in work and not focus on the real stuff, because I couldn’t believe it was real. I loved going back into the studio with Pharrell because he just has this magical outlook on everything. He truly believes that the light is coming. And I’m like, Bruh, is it, though?”
A little over a year later, her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller died from an accidental drug overdose. At the time she was having a whirlwind relationship with Pete Davidson, that ended a few months after that. You can understand why she cannot see the light, just yet.
Over the weekend, my friends bashed her and I would not allow it. Before Machester, she was a brat. Afterward, she grew up and she is becoming a good woman. She is still processing everything she has gone through in the last two years. Can you blame her for needing more time to heal? It took me years to get over several deaths including my grandmother, our first cat and nearly myself in a short amount of time, and even I cannot imagine what she is going through.
She is trying to make a difference. I think in time she will. She is still mending, and luckily she has a support system to get her through it.
Jeannie Mai is very open about her sexuality and today on The Real she reveals that she is into Sapiosexuality. What is that? Is she into saps? Nope, she gets aroused by a man’s brain. She prefers someone with whom she can have a great conversation with. Or as she puts it, “If you kiss this mind, she [pointing down] will follow.”
She wants a man who can talk about the future and the good things that he has done for others including his family. She does not want a complainer or someone who is focused on his past relationships when they are in bed together. If you do the latter, then not only is your conversation dry, so is she.
Do you prefer a man who turns your on with his brain or with his little head? I have to admit I am attracted to a man at first because of his looks. However, if I cannot have a conversation with him, he could be the most gorgeous man on earth, but he won’t be to me anymore. I like a little substance behind those pretty eyes.
