I'm sad to see that Farrah finally passed away, but shocked to see that Michael Jackson died also. I was never a fan of him personally, but I did enjoy his music especially in the 80's. I feel bad for his family and for Farrah's too. Now I'm waiting for the announcement that Patrick Swayze has joined them.

They say every thing is in 3's so I'm thinking Ed McMahon, Michael and Farrah. Hope we don't see Patrick for some time on this list. R.I.P. to those who have left us. Yes Michael was a shocker as it was unexpected. A great entertainer and musician.

Farrah was a true inspiration to those that are or will be fighting cancer. She was a wonderful actress, mother, and a true icon.
Michael was a great singer, and performer, but he tarnished his image in my eyes with all the crap about having children sleep in his bed, and some of his other weird actions. I know he was acquitted of the allegations that he fondled the kid with cancer, but he paid a big price to make that go away also. I still have my suspicions about his relationship with children sexually.
He was a good looking kid, but ruined his looks with all the plastic surgery. He looked like something from a horror show in late years. His music will live forever, and I hope for his children's sake the rest is put to rest with his earthly body. It is sad what happens to people when they reach celebrity status. Some seem to simply handle it poorly and make a shambles of their lives. Fame surely does not bring happiness and health to all that possess it.

The autopsy result s showed that Mike had so much plastic in his body that they cant bury him in California unless they declare him toxic waste...so instead they are going to melt him down and turn him into a Lego's set so kids can play with him for a change........very strange dude indeed a case of a black boy trying forever to be a white woman maybe he'll get his wish in the next life if Satan does that sort of thing....(please dont write to complain a baby banger is a baby banger whether or not you got the money or fame to pulll you out of a conviction>)

And another one dies. Billy Mays the pitchman dies at 50. (possiblly from a head injury) He complained of not feeling well before going to bed. Hit his head on a bumpy flight. What is going on here. Too many people dying around here.

From TMZ: "The FAA is already deflecting blame for the death of Billy Mays -- claiming the legendary TV pitchman wasn't wearing a seat belt when he took a shot to the head during a rough landing on a flight he was on yesterday. Here's what we know -- Billy Mays was aboard US Airways Flight 1241 flying from Philadelphia, which landed roughly when the front tire blew out as it touched down. After the flight, Billy told FOX 13 in Tampa that something struck him in the head -- here's Billy's actual quote: "All of a sudden as we hit you know it was just the hardest hit, all the things from the ceiling started dropping. It hit me on the head, but I got a hard head." We called the FAA for comment, and a spokesperson told us, "The passenger needs to wear a seat belt during landing and he didn't." A spokesperson for US Airways did not want to comment until more information comes to light." www.tmz.com/2009/06/28/faa-billy-wasnt-wearing-a-seat-belt-on-plane/

In terms of importance to me, Farrah was my favorite and will be missed the most, then Billy Mayes and his Oxyclean commercials, and lastly Michael Jackson.

Probably mine too although Billy has aslight edge. I like his oxyclean and will miss that loud shouting voice at me. (why are most pitchman English, I wonder) In regards to Michael, I have been watching the documentary on him on MSNBC and feel sad for him. His dad was a monster and maybe that is why he turned out the way he did. Today it would be immediate child abuse..star or not. His father seemed to contribute to much of Michaels strange behavior. I really don't believe the pediphile stories based on his interviews in general. I think he is a child himself and just does not see how wrong this is as a normal adult man would. He lives in his own makebelieve world and has supplied it with the necessities his money allows. He has never fully developed and grown into maturity because he was thrown into this life at such an early age and did not socialize.

My first thoughts of Billy Mayes was that maybe he was sniffing the oxy clean. hmmmm....

I was SHOCKED to read that Billy Mays was gone yesterday. Him and Anthony Sullivan had gotten quite a following due to their show Pitchmen. They were hillarious.
