The first million dollar girl

On March 23, the age of Hollywood chic ended. On this day, the most luxurious actress of world cinema, Elizabeth Taylor, passed away. She was 79 years old.

Only this girl in the Hollywood Hills had violet eyes. Only she, like no one else, suited purple toilets. And only on her purple was not considered a widow’s color.

She started acting from a young age. At first she was the most beautiful girl in the cinema, then the most beautiful girl, and as she grew up, she became simply an icon of style and charm.

One day an idiot blurted out to Liz that she had a short neck. From then on, she decided that she would have the most expensive neck and began decorating it with mind-blowing diamonds. Her collection of jewelry could be the envy of another museum.

Elizabeth Taylor was the first film actress to receive a million dollars for her role. And this at a time when even a fifth of this amount was considered a luxury. But everything worked out against her wishes. The 20th Century Fox studio invited her to star in Cleopatra. Liz didn't want to play this role. One of the points was that several scenes would be filmed on the throne, which is located on a platform high
20 meters. And Taylor had a pathological fear of heights. In addition, they filmed everything in the heat, the costumes were heavy and bulky. She was even inferior to Cleopatra by Joan Collins, who raved about this role. But the producers insisted on Taylor. And then she asked for a million for the role, believing that they would not fork out. But the studio found that kind of money, and filming began. There she met her greatest love - Richard Burton. He played Mark Antony. A romance began, and after some time Taylor and Barton became husband and wife. In total, Liz was married eight times. Married Barton twice.

When Barton died, Liz thought her heart would break into pieces. If it weren't for her friend Shirley MacLaine, she would have ended her days in a mental hospital or drug treatment clinic. Unfortunately, in these establishments Taylor practically belonged. But she was able to overcome all bad habits and helped others fight. She was the first to announce that she would help a friend who had AIDS. Taylor organized a fund to help the sick and called for people to become more cordial to the pain of their neighbors. She was one of Michael Jackson's few close friends. However, she herself also had few friends. But she left four children - three relatives and one adopted daughter.
