Yes, Sharon Tate, and Jean Harlow SHOULD have been there. You also could have found a FAR BETTER picture of JAYNE MANSFIELD! SHE was just about the hugest publicity addict of the 50s and 60s.
Why is Lana Turner on this list?
She lived until a ripe old age (1921-1995) and had a career which lasted several decades! Sure, she had the Stopanato scandal, but she emerged from this with flying colors and sailed on happily with her career.
I love Lana, but she should hardly qualify as a "tragic blond". I still believe the two biggest omissions here are Jean Harlow & Sharon Tate. How these two could've been overlooked is mind-boggling.
mook princess grace is in there:
Movie star Grace Kelly, aka Princess Grace, died at 52 after suffering a stroke while driving around Monaco with her daughter... and crashing. She never regained consciousness.

tmz editors, you guys forgot sharon tate, jean harlow, paula yates, and princess grace. throw mamie van doren in there too, she's had her fair share of traumas. wasn't there a blonde who jumped off the hollywood sign and killed herself?
There was another blonde I didn't see on your list. I don't know if you will remember her. Her name was Carol Wayne and she was most known as the beautiful blonde sidekick that helped Johnny Carson with some of his skits.
I believe she took a bunch of pills and walked into the Paciffic ocean, just kept walking, purposefully drowning herself.

Where's Jean Harlow here?!
She was not only the FIRST blond bombshell of Hollywood, but she died at 26 (1911-1937). Harlow was not some has-been starlet or B-movie queen, she was one of MGM's great leading ladies and the most famous sex symbol of her era. She was ranked 22nd on AFI's greatest legends list, so her omission here is surprising. When she died, the entire MGM studio lot closed down. Would something like this happen today for Lindsay, Britney or Paris?
Come on TMZ!!!

Also Paula Yates (though a Brit)--Bob Geldof's ex-wife and gf of Michael Hutchence (INXS). What a sad mess.
