Heaven gained a voluptuous, jewel-encrusted, arched-eyebrow angel a few days ago when the world lost Elizabeth Taylor. La Taylor is basically the world’s most perfect movie star. Affairs, multiple marriages, great cleavage, a matchless jewelry collection, friendships with the likes of Michael Jackson and Elton John, an Academy Award, and stunning beauty. They really don’t make them like her anymore.
But we here at Zack Morris Cell Phone cherish Liz Taylor primarily for her contributions to the world of celebrity fragrance. No, she wasn’t the first actress/star to have her own scent, but she pretty much did it best. White Diamonds and Passion…this woman meant business. She paved the way for the Debbie Gibsons, Paula Abduls, Britneys, and Sarah Jessica Parkers of the world to carry the torch of celebrity fragrance into the next century.
But no one, NO ONE will ever deliver a better celeb fragrance commercial. I don’t care how much Vaseline Britney or Sarah Jessica or Mariah rubs on a camera lens. They will never begin to approach the glamour of Elizabeth Taylor in the White Diamonds commercials. Say it with me: “These have always brought me luck…”
She really, really, really loved diamonds. And, I mean, who doesn’t?
