Grief Stops Jackson Attending Tribute

Jackson Was Too Upset To Be A Part Of Fawcett Tribute

An over emotional Charlie's Angels Star Kate Jackson pulled out of joining the Farrah Fawcett tribute at the TV Land Awards on Saturday (17Apr10) - because her friend's death is still so fresh.

Farrah Fawcett lost her battle with cancer last June (09) and her Charlie's Angels castmate is still struggling to come to terms with the loss.

So she had to pass on the opportunity to pay tribute to the late actress, alongside Cheryl Ladd and Jaclyn Smith at the awards show in Los Angeles.

In a statement to fans, the actress explains, "Farrah was not only my friend, she was an iconic star who allowed us to hit the ground running that first season and spun us into the stratosphere.

"Emotionally, it was simply too soon for me to join my co-stars."
