So sad she died so horrifically. Cancer doesn't discriminate. You can be the homely soap opera watching welfare mama or a beautiful Hollywood star. Makes no difference to cancer. And it's become an epidemic. The way to deak with cancer is to prevent it to begin with.
I played blackjack with her somewhere around 2005-2007 at Tropicana Las Vegas, she was super down to earth and very warm and loving. It's sad what happened
I loved her!!! I was 6 years old in 1976 when her poster became iconic.I watched Charlie's Angels from a child until it ended it's run.She was beautiful and a very talented actress ❤️ RIP!!!

@@kevinbergin9971 No, it is one of Farrah's early abstract paintings before she became "famous". She passed it on after keeping it for many years. She was a strong and wonderful woman.
it’s kind of surprising to see how everyone is talking about how funny this is to watch, how much they love her etc…. people get a grip. she was a great person, but this is sad to see
You shouldn't be. These are fans just paying tribute to a beloved icon. Yes, she's a bit out of sorts in this video, but most people are just choosing to remember the best parts of her. A clever, funny, witty, playful person who endeared herself to the masses.
@@wandasewell4501 - Considering the overall body language, hands movement, tone of the voice, eyes movement, and multiple other things that are visible...? Definitely a mess. Just trying to keep it together, partly her being a pro, and being aware of the issue. But a mess underneath. As for having fun? Part of her maybe, but she knew that this is not normal. Hence trying to keep everything together. Quite visible behavior to any investigator, familiar with a body language, or a pro psychologist/psychiatrist. The signs are there, and you cannot make them more obvious (not during TV interviews, unless you go for somebody like Chris Farley - when it was obvious, even for blind people, that he was high during some of his interviews). edit: spelling/grammar
Moxie Pops Your comment is the only one that makes sense to me. All the others commenting think it was great. The woman was out of her skull and that crowd was laughing at her, not with her.
Paul was right, she was fabulous. You can tell she wasn't doing too well here, it's still impossible not to love her captivating mix of attractiveness, girlish enthusiasm and self-effacement.
So true. None of this takes a thing away from her charm, intelligence and we loved her. Hollywood messed her up and it took many a sweet lovely woman and did it to them too
@@Johndoe345-k2d - at that time? Nah. There were much more available substances to rich people at that time, and she was alrady familiar with some of them before...
I know what you mean... but only from the perspective of status quo pressure of having to express yourself like everyone else. Farrah was an iconic beautiful creature, original and unique and that difference should not have expectations to respond in a calculated way.
@@bestdisco1979 She has an enviable humble and awesome idiom She's not overtly feeding into the layer of mockery toward her. She handled it like a champ by portraying innocense and psyching her own armor to portray confidence and protection around her. I only wish her guard was able to penetrate her core and she was still with us.
I agree, she was doing a great job working the crowd. And funny as hell too, I just melted when she shook her head and rolled her eyes ! What a stunning beauty ! We Love you Farrah !
@@ws678ta well said my friend and what a sense of humor. She had me laughing out loud. And she is always put together too! Steve just wanted to share with you and I am too a big fan of Farrah Fawcett's since Charlie's Angel's.
@@leswehman11 not at all. You don't act like that on coke. Besides she explained she was tired, had travelled and took very little sleep, and was very busy promoting so she went out and had fun. She was promoting Playboy not the National Geographics she later said.
I watched this live, by myself.....I kept thinking, is it me or is she a little high...BUT I must say, she was an excellent actor....RIP Farrah Fawcett You were amazing !
I was wondering the same thing. Maybe a prescription medication for anxiety/panic. Though I never knew she had any nerivos condition. She was certainly beautiful and a fantastic actress. Not given the credit that was due. Still hard to believe she's not here. RIP 💙
Beautiful Farrah Beautiful smile , I still remember that morning she passed than Michael Jackson later in the day & took away all the attention from Farrah . Farrah your are a beautiful shining star in my eyes RIP Angel
When Farrah died she met St. Peter at the gates of heaven and he told her that there was a tradition in heaven that people who have been special in their lives are granted one wish before entering and since she had been such a wonderful person on Earth she had been granted a wish. Farrah thought for a moment and said, "I wish for all the children in the world to be safe." An hour later Michael Jackson was dead.
She was a very special Lady but why isn't anyone talking about how thin she was here. This poor lady was skin and bones. Look at her arms. You can literally see her shoulder joints! I hate that she suffered in life. She gave so much of herself.
I remember watching this live. I was deep into an LSD trip when someone happened to turn it on, and I remember it made me feel geeked out and awkward for her! I was like omg, she's tripping out as hard as I am while on live TV! Poor girl! I felt a spirit to spirit entanglement with her on some conscience and unconscious levels, like my empathy was somehow a tangible entity and was my new superhero mutant ability, and I still feel people's moods and feelings and such....but then again, that could of all along just been the LSD, and that I'm still having those supposed free-buzz flashbacks like I was always promised but never received!!! Lmfao.
I loved/love Farrah, still have that famous poster! She was truly underrated as an actress. But, on this particular evening... Somebody definitely got into the 'shrooms! 👀
David Letterman is always funny but I tell you this one was Farrah fawcett was the funniest I could not stop laughing. Farrah fawcett's more dingy then I thought she was I can imagine she was very nervous very relaxing to have David Letterman he's so he kept the humor going.
She’s very engaging and friendly / fun. The audience loves her!!! Dave, Farrah & the audience were all feeding off each other here… epic interview! lol 😂 Miss Farrah ❤.
She looks thin and seems to be on medication for something. Dave is making the best of it and he's doing it well. Sad she went through cancer and lost. She was a pretty lady.
I heard from an interview with her college sweetheart, who remained in contact with her through the years and reconnected with each other in 1998. He said that with this interview, she was going through a great deal of stress with her son and some other projects. Thus, trying to be ditzy, which she really isn't. A defense mechanism
Classic defense mechanism. Exaggerated ditzy bit to cover the sadness that was enveloping her for the last several years. She looked truly gorgeous here but it's sad to know she was hurting so deeply and that things only got worse for her. Dave knew what he was doing - ratings at his guest's expense. He'd happily hand you extra rope to hang yourself. So different from Johnny Carson, not a gentleman...Cher was right about his character. But his ratings went off the chart when "What's wrong with Farrah?" made headlines the next day. She'd had a Xanax and some tequila, no food. I can't really blame her. So glad we have these interviews to remember Farrah. Check out the Barbara Walters interview in her home that was later destroyed in the 1994 quake.
Lol it's kinda shocking that ppl don't realize that she's in drugs 😂 but it's cool. Im so happy to be seeing this...also, "thanks to Farrah Fawcett for almost here" lol
Yeah she is really wasted, but people don't want to admit it.. If this was their home life when she got their son, no wonder he turned out the way he turned. Redmond even says it himself. I am the way I am cause of my parents.. Still Farrah was so beautiful and adorable.
Farrah was a beautiful human being. The general public was so harsh on her private life. She would have been a better star and more so than she already was. Cancer took this sweet soul. May she rest in peace. We all miss her terribly. Ryan r.

Ryan O’Neal happened to her. He was a fighting his own demons and very Narcissistic and I am sure he was most likely emotionally abusive to Farrah and that takes its toll on anyone. She probably was anxious and had a little bit to drink to reduce her anxiety. I think she handled it well despite her being a little spacey. She was very sweet and never lost her temper or get belligerent like how Ryan would get under the influence. People need to cut her some slack. As far as Dave’s behavior he is like with other people too, look at his interviews with Drew Barrymore.
Poor lady, not very kind of the host to let her go on air and make fun of her in front of the audience . 😢 However she still looked beautiful😊 and with good vibes...
Agree 💯%.. and very rude, mentioning the 12-step program. Sad, that her management let her go on the show in that state - and very bad behaviour by Letterman, imo
Ryan O'Neil said she thought it would be funny to play a ditzy blonde Playboy bunny to promote her magazine spread. I remember watching this. 10:47 one of the best moments in TV history lol She felt bad when people made fun of her though.
I viewed the whole interview. She was NOT high. She seemed a bit ditzy because the audience kept laughing at every little thing she said. Letterman is the most horrible interviewer, he's go attention deficit disorder it seems. He keeps making stupid cracks and interrupts her train if thought. As for the moment she looked at the backdrop, I believe she really hadn't focused on it until that moment and it appeared to be a he was on something. I really don't believe Farrah came across as an Einstein, so for her to get her thoughts out verbally might have been a challenge for her given the people that kept taking away from what she really wanted to say.
@Judy G She's as high as a kite. Go and watch other interviews of her. She's not normally like this. If you can't recognise when someone is high, there's something seriously wrong with you.
Only heard of this FF episode. I finally saw it tonight after how many years. This episode is hilarious but it doesn't compare to his interview withJoaquin Phoenix, the unibomber. That was the best! Even to this day, i would revisit it to get a good laugh. 😂😅❤❤
This is so sad Farrah Fawcett was so drunk or high one this episode and sadly her career never fully recovered after this interview and it's so sad she is missed may she rip 😭 ❤️
I remember seeing this live, thinking it was a mess. It's even worse now. Ryan Oneal's drama didn't help her. She seemed like a sweet person and of course had a tough end. This no longer was entertainment. Sorry to see this drag on. They could have ended after one segment. I just caught the thing Dave said about the 12 step program. It seemed everyone was in on the joke.
I miss Farrah. She was as sweet as she was beautiful. Her talent was so underestimated. I pray she is resting peacefully.
She?
So sad she died so horrifically. Cancer doesn't discriminate. You can be the homely soap opera watching welfare mama or a beautiful Hollywood star. Makes no difference to cancer. And it's become an epidemic. The way to deak with cancer is to prevent it to begin with.
I always enjoyed watching Letterman interacting with Terri Gar

I played blackjack with her somewhere around 2005-2007 at Tropicana Las Vegas, she was super down to earth and very warm and loving. It's sad what happened
Sadly you were around her during the period between her mom's death and her cancer diagnosis.

I think it was cold that day of the photoshoot.😂
I was 10 in '76, and I adored her too. It had nothing to do with her body. It was who she was before she got involved with Ryan. She had a magical charisma. Unfortunately, it doesn't really translate here. She does seem very scattered, and David's making the most of it.
The crowd went nuts when he thanked her for almost being there lol
She's so cute. She was definitely a little happy on something. As many people in the world have sometimes been ❤ rip sweetie
This seemed very Marilyn Monroe like. She was a beautiful and smart woman and she was struggling at this point. She was fun to watch and I admired her greatly for fighting Hollywood to be taken seriously as an actress. She was extremely creative and a very talented artist.
She?
I said the same thing..Marilyn monroe
she was MK Ultra sex kitten programmed
@@Potaville mtf?
She does not look healthy.

There will never be another interviewer like Dave. He's so quick witted and can handle any situation
He was always my favorite late night host. No one measures up to his great, accepting of all, personality.🥰
One of the funniest interviews in Letterman history. Rest in peace, Farrah. You are missed.
VERY X
Farrah seems high AF
I absolutely agree. So what if Farrah wants to hang loose. She’s utterly charming, funny, honest and stunning.❤

Aw whether high or just having an off day, she was very cute and not stuck up at all.

Me either.

Loved Farrah and she left this planet way to soon. She had many demons however and was addicted to cocaine during this period.
She was great in burning bed but she's not making much sense here. I guess she has to have a script!
It's not you
It looks like she was high on weed and perhaps had a drink. She's a sweetheart may she rest in peace❤
High on weed? Weed doesn't get you high, it's a downer. I'd say prescription drugs and booze. Probably some kind of upper.

She was AWESOME and so beautiful and talented!! She was very funny here with dave
Such a beautiful soul. R.i.p.

She was a very cool lady that was high on life. She must have been popular at parties.
A lot of people have made fun of her...I just feel kind of sorry for her :(
she Wass an MK Ultra'ed programmed sex kitten. I am sure Dave is aware of this and enjoys humiliating people, like the did with Joaquin
*00She was a breath of fresh air in. the 70"s.*
She’s very engaging and friendly / fun. The audience loves her!!! Dave, Farrah & the audience were all feeding off each other here… epic interview! lol 😂 Miss Farrah ❤.
She looks thin and seems to be on medication for something. Dave is making the best of it and he's doing it well. Sad she went through cancer and lost. She was a pretty lady.

There will never be another Farrah !
There is NO SPACE between the last letter in a sentence and the exclamation mark! Jesus, go back to school and learn something!

He said that with this interview, she was going through a great deal of stress with her son and some other projects. Thus, trying to be ditzy, which she really isn't. A defense mechanism
She was on cocaine. That's why she was acting this way
Classic defense mechanism. Exaggerated ditzy bit to cover the sadness that was enveloping her for the last several years.

He'd happily hand you extra rope to hang yourself. So different from Johnny Carson, not a gentleman...Cher was right about his character.

She reminds me of Brittany Murphy here. They should have played mother and daughter.

what happened
She must have been so addicted or had an eating disorder. Anyway she was a good actress gone so young.
Its too bad she ever hooked up with O'neal, She was a good actress. I remember "the burning bed", and her Diane Downs movie.
“He tripped on a cable.”
“I don’t blame him!” 🤣🤣🤣

I feel so sorry for her. She is obviously high.
I viewed the whole interview. She was NOT high. She seemed a bit ditzy because the audience kept laughing at every little thing she said. Letterman is the most horrible interviewer, he's go attention deficit disorder it seems. He keeps making stupid cracks and interrupts her train if thought. As for the moment she looked at the backdrop, I believe she really hadn't focused on it until that moment and it appeared to be a he was on something. I really don't believe Farrah came across as an Einstein, so for her to get her thoughts out verbally might have been a challenge for her given the people that kept taking away from what she really wanted to say.
@Judy G
She's as high as a kite. Go and watch other interviews of her. She's not normally like this. If you can't recognise when someone is high, there's something seriously wrong with you.
@@miltownusa Compare it with this interview and you might notice a difference: th-cam.com/video/PZ5cRts1Dws/w-d-xo.html
Only heard of this FF episode. I finally saw it tonight after how many years. This episode is hilarious but it doesn't compare to his interview withJoaquin Phoenix, the unibomber. That was the best! Even to this day, i would revisit it to get a good laugh. 😂😅❤❤
This was sad but she overcame this. She was an icon. Rest in peace.
God she is soooo skinny.. skin and bones...She is all gone .. Very bizarre
@Ronald McFondle nope! I am 125 pounds 5’4 ‘ she is too skinny there but it’s ok if it’s ok
@Ronald McFondle hahaha
@Ed Miller yes i know but she is skin and bones here
This is so sad Farrah Fawcett was so drunk or high one this episode and sadly her career never fully recovered after this interview and it's so sad she is missed may she rip 😭 ❤️
Maybe she was sleep deprived
@@dolores9429 I think it was something more than that but too each Is own
Such a beauty ❤
I wish she was still around!
Was she really like this? I feel embarrassed for her.
I remember seeing this live, thinking it was a mess. It's even worse now. Ryan Oneal's drama didn't help her. She seemed like a sweet person and of course had a tough end. This no longer was entertainment. Sorry to see this drag on. They could have ended after one segment. I just caught the thing Dave said about the 12 step program. It seemed everyone was in on the joke.
Was Farrah under the influence of something here? She seems so scatter brained.
