Elizabeth Taylor never considered herself extraordinary, despite her fame rivaling only Jackie Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe, and Queen Elizabeth II. Unlike these contemporaries, she thrived under public scrutiny, transforming it into fuel for her remarkable journey. Those legendary violet eyes-so rare they appeared supernatural on screen-became emblematic of her otherworldly presence in American culture. Though celebrated as "the most beautiful creature," Elizabeth took greater pride in her acting talent and later her activism. Beyond eight marriages and dazzling jewels lay a woman of remarkable substance who leveraged her fame when others turned away from the AIDS crisis. Her friend Colin Farrell captured her essence perfectly: "limitless"-honest, raw, brutal, feminine, delicate, aggressive, tender, warm and acerbic all at once. Elizabeth Taylor wasn't just a star; she was a constellation unto herself, constantly shifting yet always brilliant.
