Tori Spelling digs up Farrah Fawcett (accidentally of course) to promote a book
Tori Spelling — who plays a dumb blonde on her post 90210-life reality show — is promoting a book by saying she's recently come in contact with Farrah Fawcett, the iconic 1970s star and native Texan who's been dead for almost a year.
Spelling told Access Hollywood that she hired medium John Edwards (the non-cheating non-senator guy, TV psychic John Edwards) to get in contact with her own father from the beyond. Instead, she ended up with one of Charlie's Angels speaking to her from the grave.
Spelling says that her medium John Edwards claimed that this had never happened before. Like a bad game of telephone, Tori was told by spirit Farrah to tell Farrah's son Remond, "Remember Daffy Duck and Hawaii."
And that was only the beginning.
"I actually wrote a letter to Ryan O'Neill," Spelling says. "(Farrah) gave very specific details of things to tell them. Included in the note to Ryan, I said, 'please pass this on to Remond.' I haven’t heard from Ryan, so I don’t know … I’m hoping he understood what I was trying to say and doesn’t think I’m some loony.”
No, who would ever think that?
Tori Spelling's dramatic weight loss (there are some reports that she dipped under 100 pounds) and scarily stick-thin figure had been her most dramatic recent headlines — until she decided to channel Farrah. Spelling blamed the weight loss on swine flu and not anorexia.
By "clearing" that up and dropping this supernatural occurrence during a promotional book tour, it's obvious this child of Hollywood royalty knows how to get attention. Spelling's cleverly titled new book, “Uncharted TerriTORI," has been on sale since Tuesday. Surely, it's a page turner.
Farrah Fawcett was born in Corpus Christi on Feb. 2, 1947 and attended the University of Texas. Her parents moved to Houston while she was still in college. On regular visits to Houston, she would make it to special charity events and was very active in the social scene. Fawcett had been a long-time neighbor and friend to the Spelling family. She has even appeared on Tori Spelling's VH1 show, So NoTorious.
