This makes me sad. I didn't agree with all her views but she really was a beautiful woman. Not a great actress.
Liz Taylor was a knock out, beautiful lady. Yes, her present health condition is sad. I don't like to see people suffer. She wasn't great, but still made a few tons of Hollywood gold.
The real reason I hate that she'll die is that we'll all be subjected to countless hours of TV treating this like it's the greatest tragedy of all time. While I don't think it will surpass the Princess Diana level of media-induced hysteria, it will certainly leave John-John's in the dust.
I think it's a toss up as to who was more beautiful in her prime. Either Liz Taylor or Audrey Hepburn. No doubt about who aged the most gracefully, however. Hepburn by a mile.
I found Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf an absolute hoot--"What a dump." Burton Chamberlain Dennis but she carried it.
She has done nothing half-way and hasn't anything of the truly hateful Hollywood in her, a la the George Clooney-tune bad taste attack on one's betters.
She might of course decide to continue living but the chf gives her the option to leave the stage.
