Default Elizabeth Taylor dies



Hollywood legend Elizabeth Taylor, who went from child star to screen siren, died Wednesday in Los Angeles from congestive heart failure.

She was 79.

Her children were at her side when she died.

"My Mother was an extraordinary woman who lived life to the fullest, with great passion, humor, and love," said her son, Michael Wilding, in a statement.

"Though her loss is devastating to those of us who held her so close and so dear, we will always be inspired by her enduring contribution to our world.
Her remarkable body of work in film, her ongoing success as a businesswoman, and her brave and relentless advocacy in the fight against HIV/AIDS, all make us all incredibly proud of what she accomplished.

We know, quite simply, that the world is a better place for Mom having lived in it.

Her legacy will never fade, her spirit will always be with us, and her love will live forever in our hearts."

First role

Taylor's first big-screen role was in the 1942 film, "There's One Born Every Minute," in which she co-starred with Carl 'Alfalfa' Switzer and Catherine Doucet.

Not surprising with all of her health issues. Hate it for her friends and family.

Well I sure can't bet against that. I 'hope' the boy gets himself straightened out.

He was kissing Jimmy Kimmel on the mouth the other night.
