Pop Icons : A Dying Breed


An era of American superstar icon status in the realm of entertainment/pop culture is fading ever faster with the passing of Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson.
In the world of immediacy, attention disorders and frankly, a severe shortage of talent...the pop culture icon is a dying breed...
Love 'em or hate 'em, there's only a handful left...
  • Bob Dylan
  • Willie Nelson
  • Madonna
  • Bruce Springsteen
  • Prince
  • Iggy Pop
  • Raquel Welch
  • Elizabeth Taylor
  • Jack Nicholson
  • Woody Allen
  • David Letterman
...let us know if you think of any others...
It seems unfathomable that anyone will ever achieve the type of celebrity Jackson or Fawcett were able to achieve and especially the manner in which they became so incredibly popular.

While Farrah Fawcett is reportedly fighting for her life -- her 24-year-old son is now fighting two brand new drug charges.
Redmond O'Neal is in jail.
Redmond is on probation for drug possession and he's currently facing charges in another case. It seems like he was begging to be arrested again, because the moron was visiting a friend at a jail outside of Los Angeles yesterday and he brought some drugs with him.
Redmond was in the jail parking lot when the cops stopped him to do a routine search. Redmond admitted he had drugs on him. The cops searched him, found some including heroin, arrested him and now Redmond is in jail on $25,000 bail.

Joaquin On Letterman


If you missed the Late Show with David Letterman featuring an interview with Joaquin Phoenix, you missed an exercise in squirmingly uncomfortable comic gold. Oddest interview ever? It was certainly odd, but wasn't the infamous Crispin Glover interview odder? Or Farrah Fawcett?
