This week, we saw the loss of three great cultural icons. Ed McMahon, co-host and sidesick of Johnny Carson and Star Search, Farrah Fawcett, star of Charlie’s Angels, and Michael Jackson, the King of Pop. This is a great loss to the world as everyone mourns the passing of these great legends.

Farrah Fawcett, star of the hit 70′s series, Charlie’s Angels, has passed away from her battle with cancer. Married to Lee Majors (The Six Million Dollar Man), she lost her battle, passing away at the age of 62.

Michael Jackson, most notably known as the “King of Pop” has also passed away, suffering from a cardiac arrest, after doctors in Los Angeles failed to revive him. While know for his hit  songs “Thriller” and the Free Willy song, “Will You Be There?” he passed away earlier today at the age of 50. He released several albums, gaining 13 top number one hits.

These two will surely be missed.

One of the greatest entertainers in the world, Ed McMahon, has passed away at the age of 86.  Ed McMahon, who has Johnny Carson’s comedy sidekick on “The Tonight Show” as well as hosting Star Search and assisting Jerry Lewis with the Labor Day Telethon is going to be sorely missed. He was America’s favourite.
