Legendary actress Elizabeth Taylor is in critical condition on life support, according to online reports. Taylor, 75, had been plagued with health problems for years.
The star was diagnosed with pneumonia and congestive heart failure - the latter is a cardiac condition which causes the lungs to fill with foamy fluid restricting blood flow into the heart. This condition makes it very difficult for some patients to breathe without mechanical assistance.
The British actress was the biggest star in the world in her heyday. Taylor was made an honorary dame by the Queen of England. (Source)

75 Is young. I love Liz.
Liz was the business back in the day! Definitely one of the most beautiful actresses of all time. Good luck to her…
I was just on AOL & People.com and haven’t heard anything about this. It’s not even on CNN or Associated Press and you know they’d break something like this first.
Sounds like a bunch of BS!
Either way, hope she’s well!
Love me some Elizabeth Taylor.Hope she gets better.
It happens in 3’s they say. First Estelle Getty….
I heard a rumor that there death pools in vegas? does anyone else believe that rumor
Cosigning HunE916’s post - been searching and haven’t found a damn thing! With a LEGEND such as Elizabeth Taylor, I’m sure more media coverage would’ve been given on this issue. Nexxxxxxxxxxt.
How sad…hope it’s not true, but if it is, Get Well Soon…..
I hope she pulls through , she was something else in her day .
