WHO'S AFRAID OF...LIZ TAYLOR?

Every year Liz Taylor holds a glitzy AIDS awareness ball in LA, raising money for this worthy cause and allowing the public to stare at her like the prize exhibit at a freak show.

This year, eight times married Liz outdid herself, when asked by a journalist if she planned to make her male companion into husband number nine.

Liz smiled demurely and indicated with a bashful bat of her eyelids that this might not be the case. Actually, she went fucking mental. "MARRIAGE?!!!"

Now maybe she's faking lunacy for the paparazzi, but I don't think so.

Watch this clip, hear the words "Now I'm gonna howl..." and tell me this isn't a woman who is just gagging for Death to sweep her into his papery wings and transport her away from the coldsore of a life she has endured for the last twenty years...
