overshadowed by Michael Jackson's? A lot of people who are sick of MJ keep bringing up Farrah's death being overshadowed. But would we really have cared that much about her passing if MJ was still alive? She was just an airhead and bad actress in some cheesy 70's show. I think Y!A questions about her would have topped out at 2 days max, and of course there would have been a few here and there trickle in throughout the week. But I don't think the people would have REALLY cared THAT much about her. It would just be the Y!A phenomenon where people would acknowledge the news by posting a question.

Same for Ed McMahon, who was even less relevant than Farrah.
