|
| Each week, The Daily Beast sifts through the cultural landscape to choose three top picks. This week, screen siren Elizabeth Taylor is memorialized after her death, Sweet Valley High makes a triumphant return, and the South Park boys unveil their Mormon musical.
RIP, Liz Taylor
She was an esteemed actress, an unparalleled beauty, a devoted wife (eight times over), and an AIDS activist. Elizabeth Taylor died Wednesday at the age of 79 after a long battle with congestive heart failure, and the memories are still pouring in. Harvey Weinstein writes on Taylor’s early championing against the AIDS epidemic, celebrity photographer Harry Benson recalls her humor and grace, and Kevin Sessums uncovers outtakes from their feisty interview. Sandra McElwaine met the star on the campaign trail for husband John Warner in Virginia—and remembers the day a diamond and sapphire earring needed to be retrieved from her amazing décolletage, and Rob Lowe also writes about meeting the icon. Plus, tour four decades of Newsweek coverage of Taylor’s life, watch her seven most memorable moments and view photos of her incomparable life. There will never be another one like her.
| Pick #2: The Godmother of Chick-Lit Returns
| Pick #3: The Book of Mormon Burns Up Broadway
