Remembering Farrah Fawcett: The Early Years!

We all know the super-famous Farrah Fawcett from Charlie’s Angels, The Burning Bed and Extremities. But she had already been around Hollywood for several years before becoming a superstar in 1976 doing tons of commercials with the likes of Joe Namath and appearing in guest spots on various popular series of the era.

She sure lit up the screen!




Above is a scene from one of her first movies, 1970’s "Myra Breckinridge." Her co-stars? Raquel Welch and Mae West. It seems as if some lesbian action was possibly taking place in this scene.

Farrah guest-starred on "The Partridge Family" and looked stunningly gorgeous in this scene with Danny Partridge and Rueben Kincaid! She was just 23 years old.



She was also a lovely bachelorette on The Dating Game in 1969. Can you imagine winning a date with a 22-year-old Farrah? What a lucky guy!



Farrah also appeared in several 1970s commercials. She did a Head & Shoulders shampoo commercial with Penny Marshall and one of her most famous commercials was shaving Joe Namath’s face with Noxema during a spot that aired during the 1973 Super Bowl.






Farrah was always a stunning woman and we will forever remember her for her beauty, inside and out!
