Elizabeth Taylor Health Rumors Shot Down

Friday August 1, 2008

After a flurry of reports in England that classic movie actress Elizabeth Taylor was on life support in a Los Angeles hospital, her publicist has denied the rumors and says that the actress is in fact hospitalized, but doing well and about to go home soon.

The violet-eyed legend is 76 years old, and has been experiencing health problems. But she's also been out and about in Hollywood in recent months. Her spokesman says she's surrounded by family, friends and fabulous jewels, just as it should be.
