Sorry Farrah.../*Friday June 26th-Twitter
so I get to work, and I hear these white chicks talking about how Farrah Fawcett was being "totally overshadowed" by MJ's death. stupid broads. Look, all respect to the dead, but c'mon. If u mad that everyone's talkin bout MJ, and you dont understand why, lemmie break it down into easily chewable terms with a minute example of his reach: Farrah Fawcett was very famous but she wasnt famous like dat. she could do ALL the movies and tv shows she wanted, but c'mon, "Thriller", the album, BY ITSELF sold over 100 million copies! that was just one album out of his entire catalogue (not to mention how many people saw the damn video) and that was 14 years into his professional career! his 2nd* solo album. he'd been in the game for a while, and wouldbe in the game for another decade and a half. So the point I was making was, Farrah Fawcett had no where near the amount of influence and notoriety that MJ had. Shit, I'd bet ANY amount of money that she was a HUGE fan herself. Being mad that MJ's gettin mo attention than her is like someone being mad that Farrah Fawcett was gettin mo attention than Koko Taylor did. the man's legacy is much more far reaching and touched way more people than Farrah. He goes across all kinds of barriers. Farrah doesnt. Sorry Farrah fans, IIWII! for those who dont know, that means It Is What It Is. R.I.P. Farrah Fawcett, R.I.P. MJ, R.I.P. David Carradine, R.I.P. Koko Taylor, R.I.P. Ed McMahon and most of all R.I.P. to all the folks who died yesterday, who WERN'T famous at all. You guys are the ones who are truly overshadowed. R.I.P.
