TV Appearances

It was a major event any time Elizabeth Taylor appeared on the small screen! She graced award shows and was a guest on both daytime and late night talk shows. There were also rare forays into episodic TV, such as when the Taylor-Burton diamond got stuck on Lucille Ball’s finger on Here’s Lucy, she famously placed a curse on General Hospital’s Luke and Laura during her iconic stint on the legendary soap opera, and voiced baby Maggie’s first word on The Simpsons. Note: Short press interviews or coverage featured on news broadcasts or entertainment news magazine programs isn’t covered—there would be simply too many to include!
