Once upon a time (1976) there were three beautiful actresses (Farrah Fawcett-Majors, Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith), a pudgy personal assistant (David Doyle), all playing private eyes. They worked for a mysterious producer (Aaron Spelling) and an unseen actor (John Forsythe) who talked via a speakerphone. It was a big, jiggly hit.
After one season its biggest star (Fawcett) left and was replaced by a bubbly blonde (Cheryl Ladd). Then the smart one (Jackson) split in the third season and was replaced by another gal (Shelley Hack). That actress barely made it through one season before being replaced by another beauty (Tanya Roberts).
Then the ratings dropped and the show was canceled, in 1981. But ‘Charlie’s Angels‘ lives on in our hearts — and our Farrah Fawcett poster.
Jaclyn Smith
Kelly Garrett
Then: The Houston hottie auditioned for the show at the age of 30 after working as a makeup model for Max Factor and hawking shampoo as a Breck Girl. The street-wise angel with big brown hair was the only original cast member (along with the fourth angel, David Doyle) to make it through all 113 episodes of the series. She was also the only ‘Angel’ to take a bullet during the show’s entire five-season run.
Now: Smith, 63, became the queen of the miniseries, appearing in more than a dozen of them in the ’80s. She made a cameo in the big-screen sequel, ‘Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle.’ But Smith is best known nowadays for her collection of clothes at K-Mart, where 100 million women have bought her apparel since 1985. She even has her own home furnishing line and just added a line of wigs into the mix. Like her fellow ‘Angel’ Kate Jackson, she has suffered from and fought breast cancer. She had a successful recurring role on CBS’s ‘The District’ and today she’s the hostess of the hairstyling reality show ‘Shear Genius.’ The multi-hyphenate business titan also has her own website.
Cheryl Ladd
Kris Munroe
Then: South Dakota sweetheart, Cheryl Ladd sang backup as Melody on the ’70s ‘Josie and the Pussycats’ cartoon. She had hundreds of commercials under her belt before becoming Farrah Fawcett’s replacement as Jill Munroe’s younger sis, Kris, after season 1. The cheerfully bland angel recorded two albums during the series, ‘Cheryl Ladd’ and ‘Dance Forever,’ sang on ‘Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert’ and competed in the ‘Battle of the Network Stars.’
Now: Ladd, 57, played a desperate housewife in the teen flick ‘Poision Ivy’ with future movie ‘Angel’ Drew Barrymore. She penned an autobiographical book, ‘Token Chick: A Woman’s Guide to Golfing With the Boys’ and was also seen in national menopause ads. Recently Ladd was playing James Caan’s wife on NBC’s ‘Las Vegas.’ She lives in Santa Ynez, Ca., with her second hubby Brian Russell, and recently put up their 7,000 sq. ft. home for sale, complete with a horse facility, tennis court and swimming pool, for $5,795,000. Ladd also keeps her own website.
Kate Jackson
Sabrina Duncan
Then: The brainy babe from Birmingham, Ala., was the first ‘Angel’ to receive her wings for the show and the second one to leave after Fawcett took a bow. Prior to ‘Angels,’ she landed a role on producers’ Aaron Spelling and Leonard Goldberg’s ‘The Rookies,’ playing a nurse. When that ended, Jackson helped develop ‘Angels’ with Spelling — no wonder she was known as the smart angel. Spelling later refused to let her go when she was offered the lead in ‘Kramer vs. Kramer,’ which went to Meryl Streep as well as a Best Supporting Actress Oscar. However, Jackson received two Emmy and three Golden Globe noms during her three seasons before Sabrina left to get married and raise a family.
Now: Jackson, 60, went on to star in another hit, ‘Scarecrow and Mrs. King’ playing a snooping housewife, married to a spy and raising two boys. She took a break from acting when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and joined the campaign to promote mammograms. Recently she voiced an episode of the ‘Family Guy’ as Mrs. Amanda King in a ‘Deep Throats’ episode and has a recurring role on ‘Criminal Minds’ as Ambassador Elizabeth Prentiss. Last year she reunited with fellow ‘Angel’ Smith when they re-created their famous ’70s hairdos for ‘Shear Genius.’
Farrah Fawcett
Jill Munroe
Then: Who didn’t have a Farrah Fawcett-Majors swimsuit poster on their wall? C’mon you know you did. The titillating Texan and college dropout was paid a reported $10,000 per episode to appear on the show about the time her poster started to sell — 12 million have sold around the world to date. The iconic sex symbol was the first ‘Angel’ to leave (after only one season) to pursue a movie career. Her character Munroe was written off the show to become a Grand Prix racer but came back after a well-publicized lawsuit with Spelling. She reluctantly returned to appear in a number of guest spots over two seasons.
Now: Fawcett, 62, didn’t make it big in movies but is still an enduring pop culture icon. She scored Emmy noms for ‘The Burning Bed’ and earned accolades on stage and screen in ‘Extremities.’ Her union with Lee Majors ended after nine years; she then hooked up with actor Ryan O’Neal. The on-off lovers have been steady tabloid fodder, and their son, Redmond, 24, is making headlines of his own. She did Playboy in December 1995 at 50 and again two years later. Her incoherent ’97 appearance on ‘David Letterman’ is one for the ages, but for the past few years, Fawcett has had bigger concerns: She’s been battling cancer, and has now been hospitalized in L.A. as her condition worsens. But producer Craig Nevius says “She’s doing fantastic … She is not on death’s door.”

What Redmond O’Neal called a “major misunderstanding” is starting to make a little more sense.
The 23-year-old son of Ryan O’Neal and Farrah Fawcett, who was arrested along with his dad last month on suspicion of methamphetamine possession, was ordered into a two-week treatment program Wednesday after admitting that he had relapsed.
“You’re a stand-up guy to come here and deal with your problem,” Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Scott Millington told Redmond, who also checked into rehab in 2004 to treat a heroin addiction. “I want you to stay clean…You better stay clean or the hammer is going to fall.”
An attorney for the O’Neals didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
No criminal charges have been filed against either Redmond or his dad in connection with their Sept. 17 bust at the elder O’Neal’s Malibu home during a routine probation checkup. Officers allegedly found Redmond to be in possession of what looked like meth, as well as a small vial of the stuff in his father’s bedroom.
At the time of their arrest, Redmond was about two months into a three-year probation sentence for DUI and possessing heroin and crystal meth.
Ryan O’Neal has maintained his innocence in the affair, his lawyer telling reporters that his client would no doubt be vindicated.
“Those were not Ryan’s drugs, he doesn’t use drugs, and has nothing to do with them,” attorney Mark Werksman said. “It’s a dangerous assumption for deputies to have arrested Ryan just because he was in proximity to the drugs.”
Redmond, meanwhile, characterized the situation as a “major misunderstanding. “Life goes on, you know,” he told a pack of paparazzi who followed him home from a market the day after his arrest. “It’s all I have for you, really…If I knew more, I’d tell you more.”

Feds probing the alleged sale of cancer-stricken Farrah Fawcett‘s medical records to The National Enquirer could find a long mole tunnel between the hospitals and the tabloids.
Daily News reports,
Former UCLA Medical Center staffer Lawanda Jackson was indicted on April 9 after allegedly leaking private info about Fawcett, Maria Shriver and 60 other patients. Now vets at the ‘bloids are wondering how long it will be before other health professionals and reporters are drawn into the investigation.
Staffers at L.A. hospitals favored by celebs have been on the payroll of the supermarket weeklies for years, based on transcripts we’ve obtained of taped conversations among dirt-diggers at Globe magazine.
The recordings, made by former Globe managing editor Jim Mitteager, capture him talking with his reporters and sources about stars who allegedly have undergone cosmetic surgery and abortions, as well as been treated for mental illness, bulimia and AIDS.
Among the celebs mentioned in the conversations are Tom Cruise, Jessica Lange, Liz Taylor, Billy Crystal, Kelsey Grammer, Magic Johnson, Roseanne Barr, Al Pacino, Paula Abdul, Frank Zappa and Vanna White.
Recorded between 1992 and 1993, the tapes suggest the impunity with which hospital workers trafficked in sensitive information.
One reporter is heard telling Mitteager that, “If Liz (Taylor) is in St. John’s Hospital,” his source there will know it. “She takes a special delight on getting s? on Liz,” says the reporter. “She has access to the computer and talks to orderlies.”
On another tape, Mitteager contends that a now-deceased TV actor “has got AIDS. The people who want to sell the story have physical proof. They want $4,000. ? They want to move fast because it’s Christmastime and they want to get paid.”
Equally impatient is the husband of a nurse, who asks if he can get “some good-faith money” for his tip. Mitteager says he’ll pay only “if we run the story.”
Mitteager bequeathed the tapes to private investigator Paul Barresi, who has offered to cooperate with prosecutors and hospital officials.
“I remember the gleeful reaction from a Globe senior editor to the news that Dinah Shore had been diagnosed with cancer,” Barresi tells us. “It made my skin crawl. Nothing has changed inside the tabs.”
A spokesman for American Media Inc., which bought The Globe in 2000, said the legality of the dealings before then “are not our responsibility.” The rep declined to comment on the current Enquirer case.
A lawyer for several celebs mentioned on the recordings told us he would ask his clients if they want to pursue legal action. “The question is whether you can sue on something that happened 15 years ago,” the attorney added. “Also, how reliable is the information the reporters are talking about.”
Publicist Stan Rosenfield, whose clients include Grammer, Robert De Niro and George Clooney, said: “It’s alarming that this criminal activity could go on so long without being detected.”
Man that’s horrible, a hospital selling private medical records — I would be so pissed off!
See the parts bolded above? How much do you want to bet, the mental patient was Tom Cruise?

1970s sex symbol Farrah Fawcett is in Germany seeking a miracle cancer cure.
Farrah Fawcett flew to Germany, where doctors were making a desperate attempt to stop the spread of her cancer, the Enquirer has learned. And longtime love Ryan O’Neal has been by her side every step of the way.
“Farrah heard about a revolutionary new treatment being used by a top oncologist in Stuttgart and flew there May 31 with Ryan,†revealed a source. “She was in a hospital, and Ryan was at her bedside, holding her hand and cheering her on. She was told the treatments would take three weeks. “Farrah views this as a good chance to battle her returning cancer after doctors found more malignant polyps in her rectal area, which had spread to near her ovaries. “She figures the doctors in L.A. gave it their best shot, so with hopes high she flew to Europe.â€
A friend of the 60-year-old “Charlie’s Angels†star learned of the new treatment on the Internet and informed her. Farrah has been rocked by the side effects of radiation and chemo treatments, and when doctors decided on another grueling round, the actress decided to see German doctors instead. The determined star once again vows: “I’m going to beat this!â€
I hope she does.

Actor Ryan O’Neal was arrested in his Malibu home on assault and firearms charges after a fight with his 42-year-old son Griffin, police said Sunday.
Sheriff’s deputies and paramedics went to his house at 12:30 a.m. Saturday responding to a call about a suspected battery, according to Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Lt. John Benedict.
“Deputies determined that Mr. Griffin O’Neal was assaulted by his father during a family dispute,” said Benedict.
No details of the dispute were released, and no injuries were immediately reported. The arrest was first reported by TMZ.com.
The fight came just a day after the family received good news: On Friday, actress Farrah Fawcett, who was the longtime girlfriend of Ryan O’Neal and the mother of Griffin’s half-brother Redmond, announced she was cancer free after a fight with anal cancer.
The elder O’Neal, 65, was booked at the Malibu-Lost Hills sheriff’s station on charges of assault with a deadly weapon and negligent discharge of a firearm, said Benedict.
O’Neal was released at 5:30 a.m. Saturday after posting $50,000 bond.

Farrah Fawcett got an unbeatable gift for her 60th birthday: a clean bill of health. The actress, who revealed in October that she was fighting cancer, learned this week that she is cancer-free, spokesman Mike Pingel said Friday.
Dr. Gary Gitnick, Fawcett’s lead physician at the University of California, Los Angeles, said the actress “has had a full and complete response to treatment.”
“Her prognosis is excellent,” he said.
The former “Charlie’s Angel” star said she was “deeply grateful” to her doctors and her family and friends “who have sustained me as I battled this terrible disease.”
“This is an extraordinarily happy day for me and my family,” she said in a statement. “I hope that my news might offer some level of inspiration to others who unfortunately must continue to fight the disease.”
Fawcett planned to celebrate her birthday Friday with family and friends, Pingel said, and expects to return to work “in the next month or two.”
Fawcett did not disclose the type of cancer she was treated for. Her ex, Ryan O’Neal, told People Magazine she was being treated for anal cancer.
