Farrah Fawcett – Cancer

Farrah Fawcett was considered one of the prettiest female leads in Hollywood during her time. She rose to international fame after appearing in an iconic red swimsuit poster. Later on, this became one of the bestselling pin-up posters in history. She was also part of the first season of the hit TV series Charlie’s Angels, portraying Jill Munroe. Her brilliant performance earned her a Golden Globe nomination.

Sadly, she passed away in 2009 due to cancer. In the same year, NBC was able to capture her battle with the disease. She actually produced this documentary titled Farrah’s Story. She earned her fourth Emmy nomination to this. With her great success, we assume that she must have left a lot of investments to her family.
