Carpenter Was The Father Of Elizabeth Taylor's Lovechild
17 May 2012 6:41 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Celebrity psychic John Cohan is set to stun fans of the late Elizabeth Taylor by revealing the lovechild the movie icon paid an Irish family to bring up as its daughter was the product of a tryst with a Hollywood studio carpenter.
Cohan, who was Taylor's longtime confidante and spiritual guide, went public with the news of the baby born out of wedlock last year shortly after the actress' death, revealing his client had asked him to reveal all about the child she never knew after she had passed.
Cohan told the New York Post's gossip columnist Cindy Adams that Taylor called her daughter Norah, adding, "Money was exchanged. Living in Ireland, the child, resenting the mother who gave her up, wanted nothing to do with Elizabeth."
He told Adams Taylor was not sure who the father was, as she had been with three men at the time the baby was conceived.
But now he tells WENN the actress' husband Mike Todd tracked the child down in Ireland and, in describing her to his wife, Taylor determined that the father was a carpenter she had once romanced.
Cohan says, "Mike Todd tracked down the child many years later. There was the hope of a reunion but the child and her family wanted nothing to do with Elizabeth and she never met the daughter she gave away. She was devastated.
"But at least she discovered who the father was - she was convinced he was a carpenter she had briefly romanced. As my client, I never pressed her for a name or any other details. She just told me to get this out when she was gone."
Cohan claims his late friend never got over the guilt she felt about giving up her baby daughter - and this led to her adopting a child, called Maria, from Germany while she was married to singer Eddie Fisher, her fourth husband.
The psychic adds, "She thought having her daughter Liza with Mike Todd would erase the guilt but it didn't; that's why she adopted Maria."
Taylor also had two sons with her second husband, British actor Michael Wilding.
Cohan will reveal all about his famous client's confessions in biographer Darwin Potter's new book Elizabeth Taylor, which is set for release this autumn. »

Mug Shot of the Day: OneRepublic Drummer Eddie Fisher All Dinged Up
15 May 2012 11:02 AM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »
Eddie Fisher made all the wrong moves. The OneRepublic drummer was collared in Denver, Colorado early Tuesday morning after going on an angry tear and destroying some property. That's not the kind of shredding this rocker is known for. Here's what happened. A spokeswoman for the Denver Police Department tells E! News the 38-year-old Fisher was taken into custody around 1 a.m. in the downtown area and charged with destruction of private property, disturbing the peace and assault. No word what set the beat-keeper off, but looking at the mug shot that was released, Fisher apparently did some headbanging as well. The Denver native was issued a ticket and is set to appear in court »

The Lion In Winter Producer Martin Poll Dead
16 April 2012 10:43 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Peter O'Toole, Katharine Hepburn, The Lion in Winter Martin Poll, best known for producing Anthony Harvey's 1968 Best Picture Oscar nominee The Lion in Winter, starring Katharine Hepburn as Eleanor of Aquitaine and Peter O'Toole as King Henry II, died of "natural causes" on April 14 according to various online sources. Poll was 89. An Avco Embassy release, The Lion in Winter was considered the favorite for the Best Picture and Best Director Oscars. The film had won the Best Film Award from the New York Film Critics Circle, while Harvey was the year's Directors Guild Award winner. However, Carol Reed's Columbia-distributed musical Oliver! turned out to be the winner in both categories. (Curiously, the previous year another Embassy release, Mike Nichols' The Graduate, unexpectedly lost the Best Picture Oscar to Norman Jewison's United Artists-distributed In the Heat of the Night. But at least Nichols came out victorious. »

Dial Back the Date!: March 6 is a Good Day for a Traditional Liz Taylor Divorce!
6 March 2012 9:51 AM, PST | AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news »
Who can blame Liz Taylor for getting divorced so often? Days are long. If a Wednesday drips by without a moment of excitement, I might chuck my husband too. That’s at least fun, and involves upper body strength. Happy March 6, serial monogamists!
1947: Director/actor Rob Reiner is born. Happy 65th, Rob! Let’s cut the crap and pick the best scene from Stand By Me, shall we? I’m going with Wil Wheaton’s confessional moment alongside River Phoenix, that nighttime scene where River bursts into tears because he’s not an amoral lunchroom thief after all. The appearance of hot, 1986-y John Cusack is second.
1951: The trial of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg begins. They'd be convicted and executed in 1953 for conspiracy to commit espionage. Dang. But it was obviously worth it, because Meryl Streep played Ethel in the HBO miniseries version of Angels in America, and »

Elizabeth Taylor Birthday: 10 Best Performances On Actress's 80th Birthday
27 February 2012 7:59 AM, PST | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
Were she alive, Elizabeth Taylor would have celebrated her 80th birthday today. Instead, she got a fitting send-off as the finale of the "In Memoriam" montage at the 84th annual Academy Awards. When she died last March, she was one of the last of the goddesses of Hollywood's golden age, but it's clear from Sunday night that interest and affection for her have not dimmed. To younger viewers, she may have been more famous for being famous than for her movie career, which peaked more than 40 years ago. But she became famous in the first place because she had the goods, as one of the most beautiful and talented actresses in film history. To mark her 80th birthday, Moviefone is celebrating with a list ranking her 10 best screen performances. If you've seen them, these are still movie moments that haven't lost their power to dazzle; if you haven't, check them »

Oscar Hosts: From Worst To Best, Rating 60 Years Of Academy Awards Emcees (Photos)
22 February 2012 2:18 PM, PST | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
They've tried everything. One host. Two hosts. Four hosts. 32 hosts. Comic hosts. Serious-thespian hosts. Hollywood-legend hosts. Young hosts. Old hosts. Hip hosts. Square hosts. Singing-and-dancing hosts. Every year, it seems, the Academy Awards goes back to the drawing board to figure out what sort of emcee will keep the show lively, attract viewers (especially younger viewers) and keep them from flipping channels during the slow parts. It's a thankless gig; no wonder Billy Crystal, who's done it eight times, decided to sit out for eight years before agreeing to return to host this year's Academy Awards on Sunday night. The job requires a difficult and rare set of skills: a host must entertain both the Hollywood big-shots in the auditorium and regular folks at home. They can poke fun at the huge egos in the room, but can't deflate them with too much snark, and they can't be too inside-baseball. »

The big picture: Elizabeth Taylor, Oscars night 1961
22 January 2012 4:49 AM, PST | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
At an Oscars party on 27 April 1961, Elizabeth Taylor celebrates her best actress award for Butterfield 8
Nostalgia is a dangerous thing, but sometimes it's clear that the olden days were just better. Where last year's Oscars' dinner was a sea of mini-burgers and four-cheese pizzas, where the food mattered little because contemporary stars aren't encouraged to eat, and nominees creaked their brittle bones down the red carpet in gowns that weighed more than them, the 33rd Academy Awards in 1961 was altogether more exciting.
Here, Elizabeth Taylor is pictured an hour after accepting the best actress award for Butterfield 8, two hours after fainting backstage, and six weeks after an emergency tracheotomy while filming Cleopatra. She's pictured three years before she left her fourth husband (Eddie Fisher, just out of shot) for her Cleopatra co-star Richard Burton. And she's at a table that's groaning under the weighty glamour of a night's festivities. »
