Spotted! Elizabeth Taylor at The Abbey...
Elizabeth Taylor Hilton Wilding Todd Fisher Burton Burton Warner Fortensky and I usually don't hang out at the same places.
But on Thursday, the 76-year-old legend dined at The Abbey in West Hollywood - one of my regular haunts. The paprazzi caught up with the actress-activist on her way out and she graciously gave a wave.
While everyone talks about Britney Spears getting mobbed by the photogs, it really was Miss Taylor and husband number five (and six) Richard Burton who were the first real targets of overzealous photogs. They began a scandalous affair on the set of "Cleopatra" in the early 60s and for the next 15 years or so, were the money shot.
Greg Hernandez has covered the entertainment industry for the Daily
News since 2001. He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession
with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen
at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never
seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.
