    The Price of Fame


    It has to be a weird compliment to be so famous that your face appears on items both flattering and unflattering. Take the late Farrah Fawcett-Majors for example, her trademark smile and hair was on posters, mugs, nightgowns and things like towels and these bean chairs. Basically, these are encouraging you to place your backside on that smiling face and no matter what happens during the course of your sit, she'll just grin and bare it like a trooper. "Oh sorry Farrah, these damned lentils!"
    This kind of marketing has given me an idea, look for my line of Celebrity Urinal Cake Covers in the near future.

    Sheds a whole new light to the term, "Sit on it", doesn't it?

    'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
    Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
    If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

      I love how iconic 70s that woman was.

            I like how they show that little boy on the chairs. Wouldn't he rather have a Super Friends bean bag at that age? I did! Now a few years later...yeah!

              I imagine there can't be too many of these still around. Most probably got tossed out after getting all stained.
