Reports are spreading (the NY Daily News and ABC News so far) that “Charlie’s Angels” ’70s heartthrob Farrah Fawcett’s long struggle with cancer might be coming to an end.  News reports say that friends and family are gathering at her bedside, and that she’s been given the last rites by a Catholic priest.

UPDATE:  It appears that Farrah Fawcett has died.  Click here for her obituary on CNN.
