Beautiful woman whose role in “Burning Bed” established her as a quality actress.
You are not the only one.
It’s said that guys found out the classes she was taking at UT and signed up just so they could look at her for an hour.
A truly beautiful and glamorous lady.
I think it was one of the best documentaries, about a person’s journey thorugh a health crisis, I’ve ever seen.

An icon of my youth has died. :( RIP Farrah
I usually don’t care what happens to celebrities, but this is sad. RIP.

She was a better actress than she was given credit for.
I have never heard it called ‘anal cancer’ before - how about colon cancer?
I loved Charlie’s Angels. Don’t think I missed an episode ... RIP Farrah; my prayers are with you ...
Oh, that’s so sad. I had such a crush on her when she was on Charlie’s Angels. What a beautiful lady she was.
