Micheal & Farrah died; The End of Era
Today was a big news day for showbiz.
The king of Pop Star, Micheal Jackson died of heart attack and one of the hottest angel of "Charlie's Angels", Farrah Fewcett died of cancer.
Two big icons of American entertainment died. Both of them were very familiar to me.
I remember when Micheal Jackson visited Japan in 1980's. He stayed in Japan for more than 40 days.
He really liked Japan and gave big compliments to our country. He said something like "In Japan shy people like me can be welcomed unlike the U.S."
Did it mean he was not welcome in the U.S.?
The other big star, Farrah Fewcett was one of the casts of my favourite show "Charlie's Angels."
Actually I liked Cheryl Ladd who acted as her sister better.
The three beautiful women acted as detective. The story was made into film.
I like the episode that Cheryl Ladd and Farrah Fewcett were together as sisters.
But Micheal and Farrah are gone.
Not only that, my image of America of those days were gone, too. America is not dream country any more.
Actually I hate that country although I had lived there for more than 5 years.
Maybe since I learned the U.S. Navy decided to deploy nuclear aircraft carrier in Yokosuka.
But America has drastically changed recently since 911, war in Iraq and financial crisis.
The End of Era.
Even Obama, the first Black man to be the president of the U.S. work too well, the things would not be much better.
This article describes why.
Good bye, Micheal, Angel and the era of America!
