What a day its been. Sky Saxon of The Seeds dies of an illness, seminal poster babe Farrah Fawcett succombs to anal cancer, and Michael Jackson, the undisputed King of Pop as well as the undisputed defendant of several child molestation charges, all died today, or rather yesterday cause its currently 12:37am Eastern time. I'm not bawling about any of them cause I've got no heart and I never really cared for them either, but it is quite striking all three died the same day. Sickness deaths suck cause they're a slow and painful process, but Jeff Goldblum's death easily trumps the above three in terms of badassitude. News junkets have been reporting Goldblum fell 60ft to his death atop the Kauri Cliffs whilst filming a movie. Pretty manly, don't you think? But before you shed even more tears for a celebrity you never knew, they were just as quick to report it as a hoax. And the silver lining in all this? The New Zealand Film Commission was unaware that Goldblum was "currently filming anything in the country." It took a fake death to alert the kiwis of his presence; hopefully now that they're no longer in the dark they'll pull the plug and instead just show The Fly and Jurassic Park cause thats all the awesome he'll ever commit to celluloid.

  1. I'm hoping for a poster of his shirtless posturing in the JP emergency bunker.
