How I miss the days of Carson. Nobody did it better. I watched this video in its entirety, almost mesmerized by the politeness and decorum that Johnny and Elizabeth had towards each other. Do y'all miss those days as much as I do? Rest in Peace - both Johnny & Elizabeth, you guys were terrific!
I try to remedy im alive and their not and try to appreciate being alive
Yeah I think that is what draws each of us to these
Wayne very much agree. Miss them 💟
I agree with you completely also felt this may have been his best interview I ever watched
Yes, miss those days terribly...we got the last, of the best of it!
Elizabeth was given a life and she LIVED it. So many people miss out on this until it’s too late. Good. Bad. She lived!
So true!
No one could deny that.
Even at 60, she is absolutely stunning. God rest her soul. She was a treasure to the world.
Tf is with that outfit and cross she looks like a biker chick
I liked Elizabeth, however, liked others in entertainment equally as well. I liked Susan Hayward such a great actress
She kept her body in shape, and she got the make-up in shape to hide her age.
60 rocks!😊
@@Marchant2 Just before this time she looked like a parade float. She was fat for years and the target of many jokes.
I never realized how funny and laid back Elizabeth Taylor was. She really was one of the most talented people of all time
She was one of us 😊
And In an interview of Richard Burton he said that Elizabeth was "sweet...very sweet." The problems were all caused because of his alcoholism.
Elizabeth Taylor was one class act, she was stunningly beautiful, spoke honestly and I so admired her as she got older too for her kindness and sincererity.
Agree 💯‼️
And: Miss Elizabeth Taylor and Lady Diana Spencer were the first two people on the whole PLANET that I saw showing kindness to victims of AIDS.
If there IS a Heaven these two are still honored there. 💕❤💕
My goodness, so witty, sensible, funny and respectful. And Johnny wasn't too bad either.
And SMART!!!
they probably F**D, how shameful they were both married.
Unusual for him. For once he showed some restraint and respect.
Johnny is obviously smitten with Elizabeth and you can tell he had a deep respect for her. What a great interview. She was feminine and yet fierce when need be. What an icon.
Amen***V*
Who wouldn't have been?

Check out the show with a bra-less Doris Day. Johnny couldn't keep his eyes off her. 👀
@@rumannkoch4864I saw that one. I was shocked at how taken he was with her, and how fun and flirty she was.
She looked good and had a direct sense of humor. Johnny was simply the best, a class act.
She had a lot of surgery and fillers but who cares. She was gorgeous and everyone needs a little help😊
Dream on !
You can't be serious. She was very well known for her surgeries.
Elizabeth Taylor is a delightful guest. She didn't shy away from anything. She took everything head-on. Johnny really was he best interviewer.
Absolutely. On the Johnny Carson Tonight show, Johnny was the Star & the celebs were his guests!
I miss Jonny Carson.
He will always be the best..
The world is headed
In the wrong direction.
People need to take time
In 2022 to reexamine themselves...
) 9
Want a shocker? I know her personal physician and the medical examine who did her autopsy. I have seen her medical records and I can honestly say, both from my opinion and from the two of them as well, I've never known another human being to consume so much drugs and Alcohol and not die from it. She consumed more drugs in a single day than most addicts do in a year. Here's the thing, she would have never made it past 30 if she didn't. The amount of physical pain she must of experienced every moment of everyday is astounding. How she didn't die of shock is beyond me. I wish people would be more honest about things like this. More people might be around today if they didn't feel the need to hide and are ashamed by what is required for them to function.
@@phillipstroll7385 Actually no, I didn't want a shocker. I was perfectly happy just posting a nice little comment on this video. But thanks for sharing.
From clocking mayer at 15 to suing the national enquirer to standing up to the hatred for those with AIDS, she was such a powerful woman
Good for you Liz!!!
Mayor
Mayer was, Louis B. Mayer, the head of MGM Studios, when she was 15 and yelled at him. That's what was meant, NOT "mayor".
Yeah. Her Buckingham Obituary self sure was.
Elizabeth Taylor had a lot of charisma and magic to her...an especially unusual level of glamour...the ability to sort of wrap herself in an aura of elegance, and a sort of royal generosity to go with it.
She also let Johnny set himself up, and knocked him out of the park, multiple times! I've never seen another guest gently just zing him repeatedly like that...!!!
Very well said 🙂
Beautiful put! Elizabeth was a smart LADY. We don't have many ladies in Hollywood anymore.
I'm not an American, never been to the States , I'm not even old enough to have watched Johnny's version of late night at the time it streamed. But I have watched many episodes of night shows from many different hosts, I can adamantly say Johnny Carson's performance was class act on another level. Such a legendary talk show host! RIP
The same here.Thank you for sharing.
Looking back in time, the Tonight Show with Johnny was an era of celebrating a wonderful generation of entertainers. I was 20 in 1983 realizing TV and entertainment was changing forever.. @ghazalehbaghaie2328 Its so Nice of you to express your admiration.
They don't have stars like Elizabeth Taylor anymore She was beautiful
Look up Gal Gadot
@@jonnysilver4488 Who? If she's modern she's plastic not natural
The most beautiful woman is Maryline Monroe. RIP.
@@nadiaroussel5689 No way, she was hollywood like a lot of them today. Elizabeth Taylor was hot
The 3 most beautiful actresses of all time: Elizabeth Taylor, Michelle Pfeiffer, Madeleine Stowe
One of the highlights of my beautiful mother (she's 95) was being apologically stopped by a policeman in the 1950's when I was a kid, and asked if she was Elizabeth Taylor. Mom was very beautiful but it was so flattering, none the less.
Sweet! How fortunate you still have your beautiful mother.
How wonderful, she must have been a knock out. 95 is amazing.
What a special compliment!!!
ET so sweet too !!! ☺👍💕
May I suggest, as I did with my grandmother, set up a tripod and interview your beautiful mother.
I don't think she ever looked better than she did here. Stunning beautiful gorgeous.
She looks good for her age,but i never thought she was a 7 on a scale of 1 to 10,maybe a 6
She was such an amazing women. No one believes me when I tell them this, but my family was actually quite close with Elizabeth. My grandmother was close friends with her in the 70’s and 80’s. When Elizabeth was married to senator John Warner, they both went over to my mothers house when she was a child, as my grandmother was working his campaign. It was around Christmas time, and Senator Warner asked my mother what she wanted for Christmas. She said that she wanted a telephone, but it was too expensive. Elizabeth and John have my mother the money to buy a telephone and to this day, it’s our best family story. I wish that she was still alive and I was able to meet her. May her soul Rest In Peace.
To only make one appearance on the Tonight Show, and to be flawless for 17 minutes, classy and timelessly beautiful is something only Elizabeth Taylor could accomplish.
Great interview of two terrific people.. Brings back memories of a bye gone era!! Our loss but a great interview to bring back memories of a long ago!! "Thanks for the memories"!!
So so so true! When I was studying acting...MANY years ago (LOL)...we were also taught how to act in public and on a talk show. I cringe today when seeing many stars doing everything opposite of what we were taught to do. Noting worse than a sloppy entertainer being interviewed...and acting ungrateful.
Well said. She has such an incredible presence, I couldn't take my eyes off of her.
She had been on the show in the 1970's with Richard Burton
i don't get it, where is Elizabeth in this video? This is a Drew Barrymore interview...
No fake laughter every 30 seconds. How I miss those days.
Fake laughter, phony standing ovations, howling and screeching over effin' NOTHING. Late night is empty, worthless now. I miss those days, too.
Right on!!!
0 oh do I agree with you. A lot of funny sitcoms are ruined by overly loud raucous laughter. I don't need people telling me what's funny! Hard to watch comedies even like friends.
Or stupid games!
@@mindyleitman9867 Right - I can't watch sitcoms because of the canned laughter. I watch comedians on youtube! Much better.
Something very special about these simpler times. I miss it so much. Thank you Johnny and Elizabeth for all the wonderful moments.
I came home from Friday night dates just in time to watch Johnny Carson with my dad, it was the best time laughing with him. Humor and no politics. A happy memory.
Johnny Carson and "no politics"???? You must have missed a lot as he was frequently quite political and downright vicious about it!
For real questions and seeing an interview from a fan's point of view I think Lenò had it all over Carson.
I was an usher at the B’way play, Equus, in the ‘70’s. Richard Burton played the lead. I seated Ms. Taylor on a few occasions. She was always gracious, smiling, polite to everyone & up close … just stunning!
Johnny Carson was a joy! I miss him, still!
Two entertainment icons chatting about life, marriage, and kumquats. Loved it.
She was married 8 times and Carson only 4. Talk about hard to get along with lol
@@drewgrows7765 hey, “🎶Too Hard to Handle”🎵
And too hot to hold ;-)
When she said she was 60 I was in amazement. I thought she was 30 not 60. She looks fabulous in many ways in this interview and has wonderful style and class. Very impressive to see her in her only tonight show appearance. She was often considered the most beautiful woman in the world. She impresses me and I'm speechless in her beauty.
Are you INSANE?
God, what a great person she was…beautiful, smart, charming and witty.
I still think Elizabeth Taylor has to be one of the most beautiful women in the world! But not just as an actress but a natural beauty!
I believe it has to do with "class" as well, men as well as ladies.
She was beautiful inside and out. Beautiful soul indeed.
She is.
Agree for the beauty
Don't know about the rest
She was. Every woman after her wore the cleopatra eye liner and classic dark hair bob that she wore for ages. Men in the 60's were totally mesmerized.I was just a few years younger than she,and I dyed my hair jet black & did all the cosmetic stuff to imitate her.lol. Later everyone did the same with Jackie Kennedy, another American icon.I wonder if the two ever met,,?
I never knew she was this fun and charming until I saw this clip . 💫
RIP LEGEND 🙏
Me either! But I was curious because years ago a had a couple of dreams where she just showed up! In one she said to me “you’re such a happy person!”
Seeing how great she is on this interview I feel honored!
I've never seen any of her movies but you just know she is an undeniable Star.
She was an actress, not a legend. Calm down, its all contrived.
Me neither, so happy that I got to see this! She is so easygoing!!
@@mjrotondi5086 No! She wasn't just an actress. She was a Humanitarian and an Activist.
She had such a sweet voice. Her laugh was adorable.
Elizabeth was surprisingly articulate, humorous, witty, intelligent and of course beautiful. I noticed too how attentive and focused on Johnny and his questions she was. She made eye contact, and listened instead of trying to think of a response or interrupting and was very composed. I'm impressed.
Me too, a shallow woman she wasn't.
She also kept connecting with the audience, despite her self-described shyness and fear.
She was quite a reader. I once heard that she read at least 1 book a week, a lot of them the classics...
"My men have stayed the same age" ! 😉 Elizabeth Taylor was on fire 🔥 for this interview! Can't believe how hilarious, open, honest, and gorgeous she was! And I agree, Johnny is smitten, wow. Got choked up at the end when Elizabeth said her best gift was the horse from National Velvet. What a woman. ❤️💓❤️
Her best gift in all her life was the horse from National Velvet. Values certainly have changed haven't they. Now it would be based on monetary value. I miss these kind of late night shows.
I can relate. I’ve always been horse crazy. My best gifts also were horses. One when I was 9 and my dad got me one for Christmas. 🥰. Then when I was in my 20’s, I was given a horse that had belonged to my riding teacher ( that I had taken lessons on). I had him until he died of old age.
@TigerEyes m
@@laraemitchell9064 I'm happy to hear you kept dad until he died of old age. Many would put in a nursing home
What an honest interview she gave, most celebrities today would only talk about the high points of their life, she talked about the highs and lows.
Her sharp wit comes from years of experience and heartache. A true beauty and intelligence.
I agree Steven Shumate. They both had much in common and differences as well. I laughed and enjoyed both of them!!
She got in a couple of nice little digs on Johnny's marriage dilemmas.
What a wonderful interview! Both Elizabeth and Johnny were in top form! How fortunate that the world can see this.
She will always be one of the most gorgeous women who ever lived…she was also a fantastic actress
She was worlds most beautiful
I loved her personality , her beauty , her sense of humour. ❤❤❤❤❤
Johnny was totally smitten with Liz in this interview. You can see it in his body language, smile, and hear it in his voice. Like a 13-year old boy asking his middle school for the first time crush if he can carry her books and walk her home from school. What a great interview to watch.
Totally agree I was going to post the same thing. He over talked like an excited school boy and the pace of his speech almost knocked the wind out of him. He was silly putty in her hands from the moment she sat down. But can you blame him? I sure can’t.
I dont blame him. She was particularly hot here.
I know how he felt. I was lucky enough to have her grace my home with her presence. The man she married, Larry Fortensky, was my brother in law. I went to their wedding at Neverland and was introduced to Michael Jackson and shook his hand.
I especially thought so with the question "Would you ever consider marrying a comedian?" Seemed he meant himself.
13 year olds do not do that . They never did it when I was a kid. What are you talking about a leave it to beaver episode
Elizabeth was so quick witted & Johnny loved that in a guest. No dull lags in this interview, more like a warm conversation between two witty people who instantly liked each other.
I miss them both.💙💙
She had some really witty comments during this interview. She's so stunning.
Very witty, intelligent, savvy woman.
Mr. Johnny Carson, for me, was the best nighttime host...so charming, and made his guests so at ease and brought so much joy to his audiences with his wit and interesting questions. Missed him a lot.🤗❤️
It’s hard to believe that these two classy American entertainers are no longer with us. Such a wonderful interview that flooded my mind with memories of just how good Carson and The Tonight Show was.
People die of old age you know?
@@death2putin718 really? I did not know that.
Whatever.
Just because you're rich and famous doesn't mean you won't die. They both would be close to 100.
@@death2putin718 🤣🤣🤣...glad you said it cause that's the first thing that came to mind!....

Sad but true, sad but true. Any civil discourse is rare these days. So is discretion absent from society
@@ddz1375 Check out Colbert... great interviews
@@pbesmer I've seen Colbert. I find him a little snarky for my taste. I'll give it another shot. Thanks for the advice. Have a great holiday! Thanks again
It was 1992. About the only pushback famous and influential people had was print tabloids. Now the hate and criticism come from a million different directions and it's instantaneous. It's no longer an exchange of opinions--its cancellation and ostracisation.
@@pbesmer You really need to check out Tucker Carlson. He makes Colbert look like an amateur!
Shes so comfortable within herself. I love it. And I love that these celebrities faces can still form expressions!
Ha,ha,ha!
😂
She was pure class and beauty and above all else… talent❤❤❤
Johnny was a comedic, and serious genius! An institution in the world of television. Our nation needs someone like him to teach us how to laugh at ourselves! You have been missed!
I agree with you. Watch Jimmy Kimmel.
@@Bee-W yes, but not even close.
I think a new FOX could open up late night slot for Jay Leno so we can have clean talk shows again.
@@Bee-W Jimmy Kimmel is no Johnny Carson!
There should be something named after him. He is a LEGEND. He deserves respect, admiration and memories in his name.
🙏🏼💜
I used to work at a catalog company and she was so nice. She would call up and order tons of things and she sent one of our team an autographed photo just for taking her order :) she was wonderfully sweet, and a great actress :)
Which catalogue? Yes, she was amazing….
it was a clothing catalog :)
@@karadanvers6136 she was a badass

What a legend!!!
A true class act!!!
You go girl !!!!
WOW, that was her 60th birthday, and she still was absolutely stunning! When I was a younger person, I didn't care too much for Elizabeth Taylor. But, as I got older that changed: I watched her movies and began to understand the characters she played; I began to feel the parts (probably because I'm older & have lived more life). My favorite movie with Elizabeth is "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" - OUTSTANDING movie with a lot of great actors. She's done many other really good movies. Glad I saw this vid clip. RIP Elizabeth Taylor. ❤
LOVE Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, and you should see the VIP's, another Liz and Dick movie that is really good but very different than "Cat".
In another lifetime may I be blessed to see Ms.Taylor. on stage,in Tennessee Williams great play Cat On A Hot Tin Roof.2nd choice,her and Richard Burton in Edward Albee's searing play Whose Afraid Of Virginia Wolf.She was beautiful and she could act.

Who's afraid of Virginia woolf was one of my favorite movies of hers.
I was lucky enough to have met Mr. Carson he was as friendly and charming as he was on tv
I have heard wonderful things about his off camera mannerisms. Apparently a gentleman in public.
Just hearing Johnnys voice makes me nostalgic. So many tv and personal memories come streaming in.
Witty, intelligent, beautiful and natural,, never a victim despite her travails. A class act unlike most actresses today.
EXCELLENT COMMENTS!!!!
She is 60 years old and still one of the most beautiful women in the world. Not to mention her momentous accomplishments.
It's genuinely shocking that she is 60 years old here, especially given all of the travails she'd been through. She looks like a healthy and happy 40. But aside from her looks, she is also just so damn charming! So relaxed and self-effacing. Terrific bit of television history.
Lot of women in the world are still hot at 60 that take care of their body's and not get obese
Actually, she is 50 years old here. She was born on February 27, 1932, and died March 23, 2011. It is said she had the most beautiful face in the world. I think that is probably true.
@@dina113east She did not lie. This interview was in February 1992. She was born in February 1932. 92-32=60.
@@itsme-rt7nz You are right. This is from 1992.
@@dina113east So this was 1992. That makes her 60. Btw, I met Elizabeth Taylor probably a few months after this in Miami with a group of very attractive women incl. myself-we were not impressed with her. A huge head and really heavy make-up to the point it was hideous.
Compare this charming and entertaining interview with the garbage being broadcast these days... it's truly sad. Both Elizabeth and Johnny are true stars and loved and truly missed.
She did her later years with such grace. Her efforts in philanthropy surpassed even her wit and beauty.
She really had a great sense of humor.
This interview has to be the best of Johnny Carson's 30 years on television. Elizabeth looks the very best ever....clean and sober at the time 4 years and that was a lifetime struggle for her and huge credit for the guts to keep trying to get sober and stay sober ....one day at a time. Fabulous interview between two flawed individuals who were able to laugh at all of their mistakes! Because it's called LIFE! BRAVO !
✨👏✨👏✨👏✨👏✨👏✨
Elizabeth Taylor still shines like a 69 carat diamond. Such a beautiful, sweet, humble lady. Johnny Carson was a funny, respectful gentleman and a true professional. Both are much loved, timeless stars. IMO. 💕
For such an Icon, she seemed so down to Earth ... may she rest in peace.
I just loved her sincerity and honesty through this interview. Elizabeth was an iconic star and the epitome of Hollywood royalty. RIP
I was lucky enough to have Elizabeth grace my home with her presence. The man she married, Larry Fortensky, was my brother in law. I went to their wedding at Neverland and was introduced to Michael Jackson and shook his hand.
This is why I love the comment section.
@randal - amazing!! Wow
What year?
She was at my home in 1989 I believe. They were married about two years later. We knew they were going to marry when they came back from a trip to Thailand where they exchanged these beautiful gold rope bracelets with each other.
I also got to go to her birthday at Disneyland. It was awesome.
@@randal_gibbons Amazing
Wow, She is Stunning!🤩 I miss this show so much!!💗
Yes, indeed. Many people mention her appearance but overlook her lovely, lilting voice that was full of inflection and joy.
@@cameraobscura2379
Absofreakinlutely🙌🏼💗
This was a pleasant entertaining interview. They both did well interacting with each other. When she first started talking to Carson, the tone of her voice was higher pitched, then it went down to its normal tone. It may have been due to nervousness at first, then she was able to relax and be herself. She comes across with a good sense of humor, and has the ability to laugh at herself. Not only does she look great here at 60, but she also had a beautiful smile. Alot of other celebrities on Carson would talk over him, but Taylor actually listened to what he said. Elizabeth Taylor was a wonderful woman. A class act.
What a great 17 minutes!
Johnny and Elizabeth made me go back in time...
Was still gorgeous at 60.
Yes Madonna should take notes how to get older gracefully
@@saarapollonen8138 only famous beauty Ive seen doung that is Helen Mirrin
Hard to believe that thirty years have passed since Johnny signed off. He was and remains the King of Late Night because no one has as yet, ever done it better.
Exactly. Spot on comment.
It's that older generation gentleman attitude and he's a comedian that helps his job as a host.
Look at the bozos we have today.A real drop in culture.
I grew up more with David letterman, so he is King for me 😅
I so well recall watching his final show with my mom who has now passed away, and weeping
Wow.She was stunning, inteligent,so humour spirit,so talented star.,so big heart, philanthropy .
R.I.P Elizabeth 🙏🌷♥️♥️♥️
Empathy. Her photo should be in the dictionary. How many very serious surgeries this woman had.
Johnny Carson's ease at while he interviews Elizabeth Taylor and the way she responds is classic. His responses and expressions. Nobody does it better !!!😃
Elizabeth shined, but Johnny Carson models such skill & talent in how to do great interviews of interesting people, clever showmanship, great humor, quick wit, pivot-ability, and still be able to hit hard stuff with respect. He had humility and could, often did, laugh at himself. Thank you for posting this!
She was quick, held her own with Johnny. Loved them both great entertainers.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this interview. He was sooo kind and asked great questions! She looked like she was really in a good place. People don’t know this but giving and receiving interviews is really really hard and they look like they were just two friends just catching up.
WOW! fantastic interview...I absolutely LOVE her honesty and candor.
Bless them both.
She was a national treasure.
Or National Velvet !!! 🐎
Elizabeth and Johnny were present for the majority of my life. When you are a kid, you don't ever think of the posibility of them not being here one day. When they die, it is a shock! You take it personally. It's as if they were personal friends. It hurts and it is a very emotional experience! I cried over both of their passings. I truly miss them both. I know it was only their bodies that died. They are on the otherside of the veil enjoying a beautiful life, THE REAL LIFE. I sometimes envy all those who are home in the spirit. No worries, no pain, no reason to fear.
Only if there was a guarantee there's life after this one. Just seeing a spirit like many SAY they have would do it for me
How right you are,
Reminds me of how sad I was when Johnny retired. His elegance and kindness toward his guests was innate and so appreciated.
I watched that night. I remember it because Elizabeth was so beautiful. I sure miss Johnny and his great sense of humor
im 74 and i dearly miss them ALL!
No matter who's Hosting Late Night
TV, there will never be anyone like Johnny Carson. He made us feel like we were part of the show. He was always prepared to entertain and make Us laugh. What a great Man, and Ed and Doc and the band and all those years of just being himself and engaging! R.I.P. JOHNNY, YOURE STILL THE GREATEST!!! 🧐👍
You make a great point I've never read anywhere else about Johnny Carson. He really did have a connection with the audience that no other talk show host since has. Some might interact with their audience a little in some ways, but it's not the same quality of connection. And even watching at home on the TV, as I did as a kid, I felt included. Thanks for making that point. 😊
Truth Indeed
Good lord. She is class and elegance personified.
A fair, polite, and decent interview. I miss the Johnny Carson show.
Me toooo
It seem like he knew celibraties personally
Johnny Carson was a scream! Loved watching him. There are no actresses or actors today who could hold a candle to the actors/actresses of this era above.
What about Joy Behar?

May they both rest in peace 🙏
I always loved her...especially as herself. In personal interviews you can see her warm personality.
I share a birthday with her, the most stunning woman ever 💕
Liz is sharp as a knife and funny! Johnny is on top of his game as usual. Perfection!
I love her laugh. Infectious.
Wow, Elizabeth Taylor was so nice and charming, and Johnny Carson asked her some excellent questions and he was clearly thrilled that she was there. Two legends on the same stage.
2 phenomenal people....glad I got a chance to see this. They don't make em like this anymore in Hollywood....
We shall never see the like of Johnny again. A true class act. Growing up I couldn't watch, he was on so late. And as I grew and watched he was a natural and all his guests were treated with respect and seeing him with Lady Liz, wow.
I wasn't allowed to stay up late either but I snuck down anyway. The Civility and respect by Johnny Carson to his guests it's just not seen today. Nor is a guest spot last this long and be interviewed as well. It's all about the dollar and selling something in 5 minutes or less
I always watched Carson. I remember watching carson with my mother and her parents while my dad worked night shift. I guess my family was all night owls and nobody minded me staying up with them.
What about Arsinio Hall?

What an amazing interview!❤️ Elizabeth, was beautiful at 60 and she had the most iconic personality! I so admire how she stood up for her mom! I still miss and loved "The Johnny Carson Show!" ❤️ 🎬 ❤️
I have to say this is one of my favorite Carson interviews. In my opinion she is one of if not the most iconic women in Hollywood. She is just so very intriguing. For me, its her eyes. Who's afraid of Virginia Wolf? 😆
She was so brilliant, in so many fields
Gave a massive support to Aids Causes, she wasn't afraid to enter darker areas & there will never be another Elizabeth Taylor ⭐❤⭐🎉🍾
Miss Taylor is simply charming ! 💗
Elizabeth Taylor was amazingly beautiful, talented, accomplished, & ultimately, an industry icon. A tenacious survivor of endless trials & tribulations. Courageous, loyal & philanthropic. A career spanning her lifetime since childhood. I've watched her movies from her career beginning to her last performances. Her life was several lifetimes lived, all concentrated into one persons life. She just kept going, & living & accomplishing, with fierce determination to overcome all adversity. When you'd think that she certainly couldnt.... she could, & bounced back better than before, every time. Unbelievable life, in a very believable woman.
Always so beautiful. Such wonderful interviews.
Elizabeth Taylor was a classy elegant lady. Love this interview with Johnny Carson. Both icons of their day. Greatly missed.❤️
Boy I miss them, what talent they both had, and real stars. So great to see them again! Thank you for posting:)💕
This was a great interview. It covered a lot of ground. It brought out some personal stories about moral and business behavior. Elizabeth Taylor gave it back to Johnny Carson about marriage.
I looked forward to watching The Tonight Show every single night. The best way to end the evening was to laugh at Johnny’s jokes and enjoy his quick wit and humor! He had the best guests , from actors, comedians, Zoo people and even some 100 year old ordinary people telling their secret to living so long! Everyone one adored Johnny and the day he retired I cried like a baby! What a wonderful man he was.There’s never been one like him nor will there ever be!
There is a better way to end an evening, but I won't go into details. :)
As David Letterman said: "Johnny Carson was King of late night television and all those who came after are just pretenders". Dave included himself in that 'pretender' category, he was humble.
@@gregGould He said he owed his career to Johnny, so did Jay Leno and many others, except Fallon he's too young and about as funny as a train wreak
Once in a while there are people who come along who are incomparable in their field of entertainment. I agree. Johnny was one of them. One of the last of the great comedians.
@@suzannenelson3558 But a complete a hole in his private life.......he was ashamed of his handicapped son Rick and his struggles with mental illness...and he was married 4 times! Loser!
Anytime I see Carson clips I always point out one of the things I really loved about Carson was his guests all STAYED for the next guest and to the end of the show. It usually led to funny interactions and it was a sign of respect for Carson and for the guests themselves. Nobody has done that for decades on any of the other shows. Miss that.
Most did but not all of them
I remember this episode!! I saw it when it was broadcast 30 years ago. I even remember her outfit and the big cross she wore. It led me to pray for her for weeks after this aired. I have thought about this interview often since then, even recently. And now I find it on RUclips. So glad you posted it. Thanks!
I wish Elizabeth had done more interviews. During much of her career, most I heard about her were the alleged behavior, scandals and marriages. After watching this, I felt I had a better understanding of her as a person. Well spoken and thoughtful, perhaps a bit unlucky with love but not bitter. Kudos to Johnny for a great interview.
A high school friend of mine was Elizabeth's stylist and personal assistant for ten years (she attended Liz's wedding to Larry, made halloween costumes (clowns) for them both one year, and traveled the world with her and Jose Eber. She said Elizabeth was one of the kindest, most generous people she ever had the privilege to know. She gave wonderful parties and lunches on her patio at her home in Califirnia. She liked giving people cats, and gave her a beautiful tortoishell cat as a birthday gift. I recently found a photograph of James Dean with a cat purportedly given to him by Liz after the filming of Giant. I messaged Jorjett and she confirmed Liz did in fact gift James with a kitten. Liz's daughter lives in Oregon and still runs her Aids Foundation.
"Here I have a gift for you .... a cat."
"Uhhhhh ... thhhhhakns ..... I guess ...."
That’s a wonderful memory to share.

When I was a young teenager and even preteen, I would stay up at night to watch Johnny Carson and there was nothing like it on television back then or today. He was the most comfortable interviewer and the day he left the show, I cried. How I long for those days…
