Julie Andrews and Elizabeth Taylor Interviewed After Meeting Queen Elizabeth II (2000)
On 16 May 2000, Hollywood icons Julie Andrews and Elizabeth Taylor were made dames at an investiture ceremony at Buckingham Palace. Speaking to ITN after the event, Julie Andrews described the "thrill" of the occasion and shared the kind words Queen Elizabeth II said to her. Liz Taylor, meanwhile, couldn't really remember what the Queen said to her. The star said she went "blank" with awe during their interaction, describing the occasion as "the most exciting day of my life".

No one has ever been more deserving of the title "Dame" than Elizabeth Taylor was. And Julia Andrews is not only beautiful, but kind too.
Julie Andrews is pure class ✨

I liked her glamour, but was she a good actress? Too shrill. Was good as Martha in 1966's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, principally because she and Burton were playing real life with drunken brawls.

@@catemccool4100 Yes. She and Paul Newman were outstanding. I agree. Great material by Tennessee Williams, even when played in an amateur theatre anywhere. Liz didn't do a lot of note post 1970. She was largely playing herself. Say, Night Watch (1973) or Return Engagement (1978). Don't mind her in Secret Ceremony with Robert Mitcham and Mia Farrow (1968). I think she grew weird over time. Too many illnesses and worshipful regard. A hypochondriac.

Her lifetime of pain began in 1944 when she fell badly from a horse in National Velvet. She had her faults but she was a huge star.

There is nothing like a Dame! Dame Julie Andrews ! She is great, gorgeous, multi talented. A treasure indeed. She and Dame Elizabeth Taylor were very good friends. We see how sweet Julie is to her, and to everybody.
I just love Elizabeth Taylor such a beautiful lady and mother 💕

Julie Andrews looks and behaves like royalty. She has such class and her voice is lovely. She really carries herself very well. What a contrast to Camilla

Huh? Please get a life. How anybody can start off complimenting Julie Andrews in a 20 year old news video… and end up complaining about Camilla is beyond me. Do you have a life? Let me guess, you’re retired right? You must have so much time on your hands to harbour resentment against people you’ve never met.

What are you even trying to say? A classic Hollywood actress acts more royal than the Kings wife who is a just an upper class country woman? Would you rather Julie Andrews was the Queen?

Oy! Liz Taylor is so obviously blitzed out of her mind, requiring an attendant on each arm to support her and asking each question to be repeated. Just look at those glassy and bloodshot violet eyes. God love her!
This is from ..4 .days ago ??? WOW 😮..!!! They both look Great 😃...
