Will I slim down? Fat chance, says Liz Taylor
Elizabeth Taylor, who has been thin and not-so-thin, says she will not starve herself to be like Hollywood’s tiny-waisted starlets.
“I wish I could be that size, but I can’t be,” Dame Elizabeth says in the August issue of Harper’s Bazaar. “I enjoy food too much. In the end, I’m too hedonistic. I enjoy pleasures.”
When asked by fashion designer Michael Kors, who conducted the interview, whether she dressed for men, women or herself, Dame Elizabeth revealed she preferred to impress the opposite sex.
“Men first. Myself. Then other women. ’Cause you can’t please women. They are horribly critical of each other. And more so if you’re famous. Meow.”
When asked whether she was a romantic, the 74-year-old eight-times-married legend, known for her violet eyes, admitted: “I’m afraid so.”
When she was married to Senator John Warner, she said she was told not to dress ostentatiously during his 1978 campaign.
“I ended up in a tweed suit. Me. Little tweed suits. What I won’t do for love,” she said.
