Queen Of The Slipstream Used In Farrah Fawcett Documentary

E Online Farrah Fawcett loves Van Morrison's music.

So much so that the legendary musician filmed his recent shows at L.A.'s Orpheum Theater so he could give copies to Fawcett to watch while she's at home in bed in Malibu.

Morrison's 1987 romantic ballad, "Queen of the Slipstream," is featured in Farrah's Story, Fawcett's documentary about her cancer battle premiering tomorrow night on NBC.

Ryan O'Neal, along with his grandchildren, visited with Morrison backstage after his concert this past Saturday. I'm told the actor and Fawcett have been fans of Morrison since the 1970s.

"Van is also a huge fan of Ryan and Farrah's work," says a rep for Morrison, whose new DVD, Astral Weeks Live at the Hollywood Bowl, is out May 19.

Among his favorites? "Farrah in The Apostle," the rep said, "and Ryan in Stanley Kubrick's Barry Lyndon and, of course, Love Story."

Farrah Fawcett has been watching tapes of her favourite musician performing while she battles cancer.

The actress, 62, is a huge fan of Van Morrison and his romantic ballad Queen Of The Slipstream even features in her new 2-hour documentary.

To make up for the fact that Farrah couldn't attend his recent shows at LA's Orpheum Theatre, the singer, 63, had the concerts filmed for her.

Van even met her long-term partner Ryan O'Neal, 68, backstage at his gig last Saturday to pass on his best wishes.

'Van is a huge fan of Ryan and Farrah's work,' confirms his rep.
