sharon tate polanski

NOTE: I do not want this to become a Manson Family post, though I have been fascinated by them for years, I do not want to get into discussing the murder, I want this to be a post of Sharon Tate and her beauty, because she was a gorgeous, kind woman. However, just a warning, if you type "Sharon Tate" into Google Images, there are a number of pictures of her dead body, something I had very little desire to see, as her murder was fantastically brutal. Well, there I go, when you get me started to the Manson Family, it's hard for me to stop, but I will get onto the pictures now.

This picture was actually taken on the day of her murder...she was eight and a half months pregnant

Sorry for the kinda-downer post, but I have a very exciting post with huge news on Thursday, in celebration of a certain birthday (not mine, though).

stilettoheights said...: love Sharon Tate....when I would watch Valley of The Dolls I would always pretend I was her...in fact one time while getting my hair done I said to the stylist "I want to look like Sharon Tate in Valley of the Dolls"; June 06, 2007 5:01 a.m.

Anonymous said...: she is gorgeous. I have always been obsessed with her as well. Lovely picture post, thanks for reminding me of her beauty.; June 06, 2007 6:33 a.m.
WAT said...: Oh my, good post! Yes, Sharon Tate's short life and horrid end are indeed fascinating to me as well.

The ritualistic shocking slaying of her and her friends that night here in LA is the stuff of legend! Manson claimed The Beatles' White Album inspired him to send his crew to commit the murders, that there was a coming race war, that the Beatles were the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, that the song Helter Skelter inspired him and crap.

So much to get into!; June 06, 2007 9:37 a.m.

Eddie said...: I actually remember my mom talking about the murder and being too young to really understand the full scope and brutality of the crime. The whole Manson Family thing was creepy to say the least. Helter Skelter people. I incinerated the book after I was done reading it...

Love the pics. Can't believe that picture was taken the day of the murder... so sad.

aww stop, youre making me blush (but dont actually, i looove it): testimonials from other blogs:

"I read your whole page and thought what a great writer you are. So personal and smart. I loved the Bob Dylan piece. I went to see him in Santa Monica last month and thought the same thing. My generation were so badly behaved... surprisingly obnoxious really. Thank you again, you made my day..." -Catherine James

"Daily reader of the blog Ashcan Rantings? Yes? Then you know it's a blog which is very rare to find. A true gold mine in this blogosphere. If no? Then you have been missing out on a lot of incredible posts by the lovely, witty and brilliant Molly, creator behind the oh-so fantastic Ashcan Rantings. "-sunniva

"We all dream of finding the perfect vintage fashion, but Molly dreams of being Vintage. It's always refreshing in this copycat popculture of both Fergie and High School Musical to find a teen who is truly original in her interests. From Molly I've learned all sorts of randomosity about the 1960s, thanks for the education. But every so often, even Molly lets modern day popculture become her latest obsession, it's nice to have a fellow Arctic Junkie out there hehe"-jayne

"the always-awesome Molly just mentioned on her blog that he is, as the kids say, super-majorly-extremely-finger-lickin'-good-hot. Well, I think she used more normal words. But...word, Molly"
"the perennially fab Molly over at Ashcan Rantings"
-emma

"One of the funniest blogs and the future Mrs Artic Monkey." -coco

"You have the greatest taste in music. Your devotion to Prince, fashion and all things hippie caught my eye and I could never look away. Your blog always lifts my mood. I wish I could hang out with you and sing some Prince karaoke. " -pretty in black

"I noticed Molly from Ashcan Rantings has a thingy on her blog showing where people have mentioned her. Well, do you think it would be ok if I just mention her here? Or will she just tastefully pass over this post, pretending like it never happened? Well Molly, here goes. YOU ARE GREAT! I WISH I WAS AS WITTY AND FUN AS YOU! WHY ARE WE YELLING?"
"1. She's cool. No, not Keds cool. Like, future rockstar cool. The girl you see at the record store cool. The girl at the gym who listens to funk music cool. She's that kind of cool.
2. She knows who she is.
3. She has an excellent sense of humor.
4. She's an old soul, but not in a boring, geriatric way.
5. She has excellent (and accurate) pop culture references. "
"Molly is probably the coolest person you will ever meet. Not that you guys aren't cool...but she is going to a George Clinton and Parliment-Funkadelic concert. She's witty, interesting, and intelligent. Also, she is on vacation so won't re post this (now, anyway). But I feel she deserved some credit."
-sister libby

"Good lord but Molly is funny. And also possessing of impressive musical taste. Her blogger profile alleges that she's from Fiji. If this is true Molly, please email me so we can talk about Levuka. Then again, Molly is also listed as 252 years old, so I have my doubts as to her Fijian citizenship."
-Sarah Von

"one of my new favourite blogs, it is always full of fun and interesting posts and the creator is cool as fuck"
-miss maybel

"Molly is a very witty blogger. Her blog covers music, film, fashion & so much more. I always get a kick out of her latest blogs on whatever topic. She covers everything from the 60's and 70's to today's entertainment world."
-Keith

"The ten best things about Molly:
1- you are rarely embarrassed
2- you are strange beyond belief
3- you have level 57 stalking powers
4- You pick every last detail apart
5- you are good at making plans
6-you cried at Arlo Guthrie
7- you're dancing, i like to sit back an interpret it..
8-you can put up with demons (children) so i don't have to
9- i once saw you punch a tiger in the face
10- you can get along with pretty much everyone."
-Michele

"Molly has been my blogging buddy since the invention of the wheel and will continue to be my luscious buddy until we can email hologram kisses to each other. Molly is a fellow music junkie and has convinced me to listen to artists I would've otherwise dismissed. Molly has more WIT in her pinky nail than most do throughout their entire body. Every visit is a stimulating experience... BOW DOWN BISHES."
-Crazy Eddie

"This girly...Molly...is more than half my age and she opened my eyes to some music I never would have heard without her!"
-Jill

"I love you and your blog was the first blog I ever fell in love with. Can i be in your side bar now?" -maya
