Iman was just writing about it yesterday, Elizabeth Taylor had many connections with the music world, but I had no idea she knew David Bowie!
The actress, who died last Wednesday, was photographed by Terry O’Neill in Los Angeles in 1975, embracing and sharing a cigarette with Bowie.
Bowie had just had the number one hit single ‘Fame’, and Taylor had just done her craziest role in ‘The Driver Seat’, a weird Italian movie with Andy Warhol.
These pictures are amazing, but don’t be fooled by the intimacy of the moment, it was the first time they had met, and I have read it was at her request.
