Fred Travalena passed away yesterday after losing his 7 year battle with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The 66 year old impressionist was a f*cking genius who was taken away way too early. If you are not familiar with his work, watch that David Letterman appearance and be prepared to be blown away. It is viral videos like that will keep his legacy alive.
TV’s most famous pitchman, Billy Mays passed away today at the age of 50 according to St Petersburg Times. The 50 year old was discovered by his wife this morning.

This is the saddest post, I have posted in my 3 years of blogging. Michael Jackson passed away today at the age of 50 from a cardiac arrest. What more can I say, but what a true genius he was and I hope he is happy and free in heaven. Something he really never was here on this earth.
I just can’t say anymore, today is a sad sad sad day.
Farrah Fawcett lost her battle with anal cancer today at the age of 62 according to Extra. We first got to know Farrah for her beauty on Charlie’s Angels and then we watched her grow as an actress in her role in The Burning Bed. But it was her last role will leave us with her biggest legacy, her courageous battle with cancer. We watched as she was first diagnosed with the disease and we followed her as she fought it with all her might and then last month we saw her up close as she told her story of her nearly three year battle with cancer on NBC. She put on such a brave face, a beautiful face that will be remembered for its strength.
Heaven might have its angel, but we still have her mortal memories in her amazing body of work.
