That's a shame, before my time but she seemed nice enough - although was good mates with Michael Jackson wasn't she?

Also didn't Za Za Gabor (I'm positive that's not how you spell it) have her leg amputated the other week? She'll be next for the knackers yard.

Sad, she always came across as a gentle person on TV interviews.

Below the knee I think. She is properly nuts.

Re: Elizabeth Taylor
 

And all those shoes eh? Now she can wear only one of each...

Re: Elizabeth Taylor
 

Sad to hear the news, a proper Hollywood Legend.

Re: Elizabeth Taylor
 

In her youth, one of the most beautiful women alive.

Cant believe you beat Lionheart to that one :p

Re: Elizabeth Taylor
 

Can somebody remind me when she last made / starred in a decent film please and wasn't just famous for - well, being famous, or her various marriages or weird friends?

Re: Elizabeth Taylor
 

Nominated for five oscars and winning two for Best Actress - isn't that enough to make you a screen legend. She was gorgeous in her younger years, bit strange, but most arty types are.

Re: Elizabeth Taylor
 

I never thought much of her because all the pictures of Eliz Taylor were of the old woman - fat, awful dyed black hair, glittery jewelry - not attractive.

Then I saw one of the movies she did back in the fifties. Whoa! A stunner.

But she wasn't the kind of stunner that would have made her an actress today. Funny how our concept of hollywood beauty changes over the years. A lot of today's starlets wouldn't have cut the cake in the 1950s because they're too scrawny. Elizabeth Taylor was....voluptuous.

Re: Elizabeth Taylor
 

hnd- also her enormous contribution to charities, she has been a huge supporter of aids charities, I believe she has her own aids charity as well

Re: Elizabeth Taylor
 

Exactly! She did a huge amount of work for AIDS awareness and fundraising, before it became mainstream as well and she ought to be remembered for that as much as anything else.


The stupidest comment I have seen about her death was some daft cow saying 'Now she'll be reunited with Richard Burton in heaven' - and all the other husbands too presumably! That's be a nice menage a huit!

Re: Elizabeth Taylor
 

I wonder if her cloud will be pink lined with sparkling diamonds?
