  • i wasn't with her that night, so i have no opinion.

  • woh who was that woman who kissed ridley scott? she looks fairly young.

  • so?

  • Full of charming. Queen of sweetness. Liz forever! ♥

  • Full of charming. Queen of sweetness. Liz forever! ♥

  • I don't care if she's drunk or not - she can still be sweet and entertain either way!

  • There was nothing poor or pitiful about Elizabeth Taylor. She had more class than most of todays movie stars and even with all her health issues, including brain surgery she always presented herself with style and grace untill the day she passed on. We are talking about one of the greatest true Hollywood movie stars there ever was. Being drunk in public was not an option. The person who posted this video needs to do some serious soul searching before slandering anyones name for You-Tube votes.

  • With all due respect,

    I couldn't stop laughing.

    Bless her

  • Most of the people in the room are in awe of this woman - as am I. She was not drunk. She was being a tropper, as always, and showing up in spite of poor health and heavy medication. You are seeing someone heavily medicated in order to honour her commitment to appear. She looks like a million bucks and her ability to laugh and poke fun at herself is what makes her classy. Liz was a one off. There will never be another. RIP

  • Bless her sweet heart. This was woman of true grace and true kindness.

  • Love her, she is so charismatic

  • "And excepting the award is........." See, this shit is no surprise to anyone.....all planned out.

  • She carries it off with charm and wit and enough charisma to fill that room 20 times over.

  • She's Elizabeth Taylor, she can get away with being drunk.

  • She wasn't drunk. It is disrespectful to say she was drunk.

  • She was always good for a laugh

  • FFS,was there any need for this? Did she stumble about the stage? Did she appear incoherent? Was she in any way beligerent? No,No, and No.She had lengthy periods of ill-health for many years including a stroke.Considering this I think she handled herself remarkably well.She's dead,let her rest in peace.

  • Not drunk...not a word was slurred. A little pixilated, maybe.

  • She is not drunk, she is so natural and cute...

  • She WAS NOT DRUNK !!! She was funny, natural as the air we breathe and had the greatest sense of humour !!! Bless her soul always !!!

  • Sad...

  • I'd like to see the haters here suffer the kind of chronic pain that she was in for half a century. Walk a mile in her shoes.

  • That's pretty darn funny. Who knows if she was really drunk or on medication, she's not here to defend herself, but she made me laugh. It looks like she had a good sense of humor. I've never read that Liz had a stroke, a brain tumor and lots of health issues, but never a stroke. She probably shouldn't of been there if she was sick, but Liz loved the glory of the lights and camera's. Dick Clark was a class act and saved the day for Liz, he who also had a stroke some years later.

  • She was on "medication" most of her life. If she didn't have money she would have been considered trailer trash and probably institutionalized.

  • @flenif2247  wow that was harsh

  • i think it was a joke..

  • I doubt it was alcohol. She sound more like she's under the influence of hydrocodone.

  • She's not drunk..........you should change the title.

  • hahahahaa i love this!!!

  • 0:57 Dick Clark's a class act. He tried to to salvage the moment and give a great lady some dignity

  • Sunshine?

  • @jeffgerman Could that be the SUNSHINE with Ralph Fiennes and Bill Hurt?

  • but SHE'S NOT DRUNK damn it! What is wrong with you??? Don't you have any idea what time and sickness do to your behavior? Don't you have grand parents? Jesus

  • Keep in mind Elizabeth had BRAIN SURGERY around this time. She is not necessarily drunk.

  • Wonderful! The most exciting moment of the evening, I am sure.

  • A megastar long before these mass produced actors, even if she did have a little libation so what !

  • Liz deserved to have some drinks after 50 years in the biz. Love the crystal quality of her voice--drunk or sober. Here's to her magnificent memory.

  • I think it's a joke... cuz she stopped jut in time not to reveal who it was :) And let's face it, it's hilarious!!!

  • CHEEEERS!!!

  • Drunk. No class. Why didn't she just puke on stage and get it over with...

  • @rdangelo

    leave her alone. shes a poor older woman, who obviously is no longer young and beautiful..this moment was all for her and she must have felt bad messing it up...shes better than anna nicole or some other celebrity like mariah being drunk and obnoxious just for...who knows what...

  • 2:00 "Glad he ate her!"

  • Dude ...

  • LOL, someone PLEASE upload molly shannon's parody of this on SNL. it was spot on

    "whaaat? elizabeth.... GLADIATOR!" hahaha

  • She definitely wasn't drunk here. I honestly think Elizabeth would have more class than to show up somewhere where she was presenting purposely intoxicated. Hey, for all we know, this could have been a planned out skit where she was poking fun at herself, totally possible! :3

    RIP Elizabeth; miss you everyday.

  • @dreamzeppelinarcher I tend to agree with you. Also, let's not forget that there have been periods when she was heavily medicated...this could have been one of those moments. Either way, Ms. Taylor could do no wrong!

  • @GospelAccording2ME

    I can believe the medication. It seems like she always had an ailment.

    But you're definitely right, she's practically flawless!

  • I miss her so much.

  • Gasbag

  • She is precious!

  • Just wanna be clear on this: When the audience wildly applauded after hearing her announce "Gladiator", was that because they liked the movie, or because she managed to master a four-syllable word?

  • Bless her heart; she was always so REAL.

  • So beautifully, adorably human...

  • ha funny acting :) xx

  • She was a very cute and amiable, no matter what was going on.

  • i am used to getting them ahahah gotta love liz

  • Elizabeth Taylor was not drunk here, she had had a stroke a few weeks earlier and the medication she was on made her disoriented. So direspectful to be honest, to say she was drunk.

  • @PlatinumBlonde87 Thank you so much1 I was going to say the same thing.People are so quick to judge.

  • @PlatinumBlonde87 Internet turns so many of us into cold assholes. We love to laugh at each other.

  • The fact the she was a little happy,lol,made her more adorable!!

  • She desperately wanted to get off that stage and head back to the nearest bar.

  • haha, brilliant!

  • Thank goodness most of the film titles were single names. By the way... this woman braved tremendous pain from physical ailments for many years and so painkillers can also make you act out of sorts as well. Something to think about.

  • If you are happy 2 c something like this your life is as pitiful as Lyz was talnted

  • The woman is dead! Leave her alone!

  • dick clark the antiChrist saves the nite!  love Liz

  • As there is or was whichever the case maybe a video of the Jackson bros carrying a light blue casket with bros wearing white lace Muslim hats and wearing blue suits and one white hole on one hand and Joe Jackson leading the way in tear with a immune to be buried outside in the ground and I believe the video I watched was the true funeral not ones we all saw on our TVs and I don't blame the jacksons trying too fool the press or public ether rip MJ

  • Dame Liz has given and so has mj given millions upon millions of pounds and dollars whatever the case maybe too various charities all over the world and all press could do was backstab dame Liz and mj time and time again I have said this before too I believe mj death was planned and arranged because it was far far too scripted not too have been plus two occasions with a empty gold casket? Cont

  • badass

  • "And the winner is and it´s Flashing Envelope!" That´s funny! R.I.P Liz

  • this. is. AWESOME!!!!

  • i keep laughing when she says gladiator but in a good way

  • She was not wasted nor was she high on meds. After the Tumor surgery she lost some of her speach ability, u asses its called a stroke. I think she did rather well considering the circumstances. She did a great job.I don't know why ppl have to be so dam mean when it comes to her and MJ. They both had a heart of Gold and they gave back to the less fortunate and ill. Jellious because they didn't give to you? Get over it. RIP Dame Liz and Our King MJ.

  • She wasn't drunk. No matter how many times she screamed, "Gladiator!" or "I'm not wearing any panties!" at the Kennedy Center. Nor did she have Alzheimers.

    What people nevert talk about is the brain tumor surgery in the late-'90s. It was after that that her self-editing ability deteriorated, much like the mother in "Golden Girls". Which is why Taylor's always-lusty sense of humor started crossing over the line a little bit.

    Yet she was still able to run a business. But she wasn't drunk.

  • @scorpio888 I have to agree with you 100% this how crap gets started, ppl running their mouths and not bothering to look up the correct info first and then Other ppl run with it and the press get ahold of what is said and get away with writing the lies.

  • She had Alzahimer , I'm not too sure we can say she was drunk and just laugh about this

  • Drunk isn't ADORABLE! More like disgusting. People are so so sad when they give celebrities PASSES for terrible behavior. And we wonder why young people today are so confused.

  • @Cherry32able Whatever, does it really matter?

  • @clubpenguindoll ~ Whatever does it matter? Did you really have to ask? That's sad in itself

  • @Cherry32able Shut the fuck up, when someone says 'Drunk is disgusting' well, it's like as if they have never been drunk.

  • Her hair looked great, that was funny, almost as funny as watching Foster Brooks or Dudley Moore.

  • Elizabeth Taylor -may she rest in peace. A great Hollywood actress. Today the Globes. Why the Hollywood Foreign Press Association voting members it has (only about 90?What qualifies them to pass judgment on movies and television (they're Hollywood-based journalists -- some part-time, some full-time -- who write about film and TV for various overseas outlets)?. The man dba as Barack Hussein Obama 11 is an actor too. Hollywood actor paid from the estate of me dead to destroy the USA.TRUTH. HRS

  • I would say this could be medication. People who take lots of meds, and apparently Liz enjoyed doing so, often appear drunk when under the influence of pills.

  • WA WA WA WASTED! LOL!!!

  • No surprise here. The Golden Globes always overserves their guests. That's what makes watching it so much fun. They let their hair down, momentarily, before they "sober up" for the stalwart Oscars...

  • and who really give a shit?

  • She started out fine, then I guess she was embarrassed and started to act silly when she realized her boo-boo. Just my take on it.

  • Bless her. Such fun & innocence.

  • "time to find out who will take home the Golden GLOW" ??  0:14

  • @ScrapNfight you could be the "be" in globe very faintly.

  • @S: Turn up the volume, listen closely, & watch her lips: The "b" in "globe" is quite apparent.

  • pills

  • I sooooooooooooo wished she read the envelop first!!!!!

  • @looker768 But then it would have been over far too quickly!

  • drunk or not she did it great

  • Liz is funny, she is on medications and she is also old...she is NOT drunk..

  • Liz and Dick ... are they trying to out-facelift each other?

  • She reminds me of my Mom here, hahaha! 

  • adorable

  • haha they way she says "Gladiator" at the end is hilarious and cute

  • Even if she was, she's the only actress who could get away with it and still be adorable. She suffered so much. If anyone earned the right to present a damn award while under whatever influence, it was her, so back off. RIP, Dame Elizabeth.

  • @sectvideo She was HO.

  • she's not drunk she's just very very old.

  • GLLAAAADIator!

  • she really made a fool out of her self...she sat too long on that hot tin roof!

  • I can just say that- death comes to us all.

    Liz Taylor/Cleopatra who would have thought she would have died some day?

    R.I.P. Cleopatra of the modern world.

  • She wasn't drunk here, but she was more likely feeling the effects of the painkillers she needed to take for near constant pain. She first broke her back during the filming of National Velvet, and also had back, hip and neck problems all her life.

  • Who said that was her usual self !..That wasn't her usual self ! she was being adorablly fun lovin & tipsy...lol.

  • LMAO :D

  • She is funny, when she got drunk. I love her

  • she usually like's to get them...it took me a second to get that. The awards are so borely perfect seeing Elizabeth be simply charming was refreshing.

  • She held up well.

  • A beautiful legend, and true friend of Michael Jackson. Elizabeth also had beautiful purple eyes, a very rare eye color. She also loved helping children, and she was a great actress. R.I.P. ET.

    P.S.-I didn't see her stumbling, so I don't know why someone would say that she was drunk. That statement is cruel and unfounded by this video. Elizabeth was dealing with all sorts of medical issues, but she held help well.

  • she was not drunk she was just a little retarded,

  • She gave the tacky Golden Globes show the respect it deserved. 

  • "A CLASSIC ELIZABETH TAYLOR 'CONTROVERSY'.... NO WONDER HER ESTATE COLLECTION BELONGINGS ARE WORTH 300 MILLION AT CHRISTIE'S AUCTION THAT ENDED DECEMBER 17, 2011. HER CONTROVERSY ADDS 'SPARK' THROUGHOUT HISTORY THAT MADE ELIZABETH TAYLOR A 'LEGEND!!" :)

  • No wonder Dick had a stroke. (" . . . which one will take home the Golden Glow . . . . ") The only way this would've been funnier would be if she had hiccupped.

  • ha ha ha lol she's adorable !!

  • Holy crap...She is wasted isn't she. God love her, screw it, at her age HAVE AT IT!

  • SHE'S SO ADORABLE !! G'AHHHHHHHHH! xDD

  • GLAHHH-DIATOR!!! LMAO

  • Too bad. The booze bloated her and began to ruin her looks by the time she was forty. Then the plastic surgeries began.

  • @GlorifyHim888 I think she looks better in this clip than she ever did in her youth. Don't blame the booze, blame the arbitrary standard of beauty.

  • she is drunk as a skunk and tryin to act sober....but by this time she was a living legend and could careless what people that cause she had already proven herself....her motto was "let'em eat cake!!!

  • I think she was wonderful and full of life right up to the last minute. RIP beautiful LIZ!!!

  • This is what I love about YouTube!!! You find such rare gems such as this...despite Elizabeth making a complete mess of it, you just gotta love her!!! Good for her...

  • Awww.She is adorable. And DIck Clark looked great!

  • @cuttock Oh, is that Dick Clark??!! I have heard his name mentioned many times, notably in the conversation sketch between Barbra Streisand and Shirley MacLaine in the 1999 Timeless concert...I often wondered what he looked like...

  • @Stevo15101960 You didn't watch American Bandstand? Dick Clark was the host of that show for many years!

  • @mochagelatocreme23 No...actually I have never heard of it...will see if I can find some snippets of YT...thanks anyway x

  • I used to work in bars, and had hundreds of drunks try and talk to me.

    The broad is drunk like the rest of 'em. Shut your mouth if you say she ain't.

  • toally not drunk she had a senior moment.

  • You are legend Liz - the only woman who could do anything an get away with it !!! I LOVE YOU FOREVER .

  •  I SAY DOLLS

  • She was Liz Taylor she could do whatever she wants!!!!

  • @Bluelatinboy07 EXACTLY!

  • How could anyone think she's not higher than a kite in this clip?

  • lol that is funny, but she didn't really drink later in life, she was probably just trying to be funny

  • She's the best ahahha

  • GLAD HE ATE 'ER!!!!

  • Too funny flashing envelope haha

  • She was adorable!! Thanks for posting!!! :o)

  • she was great, it was the icing on the cake.... hahaha.....

  • She's totally drunk. She was slurring her speech.

  • I miss Liz Taylor so bad, very funny lady!

  • most captivating woman in the room

  • She was drunk. Search the internet. Due to some setbacks in her life she resorted to heavy drinking for some time.

    

  • lmao "and good night! you all, you all, YOU ALL!!!!! LMAO

  • Liz is this best right? Can't help but love her!

  • Liz being Liz, she could get away with it. Always a sweetie.

  • lol love the way she says "glAAHdiator!" like she's so surprised and delighted by it

    She's awesome, super cute and genuine.

  • i loooooove her!!!!

  • LOL!! How lovely!! Whatever!....Drunk or whatever she could do as she pleased!!!!! Funny and not bothered at all!!!....the last goddess looking down at all the wannabes!!! And Clark had the nerve to touch her on the shoulder in public? Close friend or not that was too "equal"...and they were never EQUAL!!! He a promoter.....she a legendary movie star.....never equal Dick!!

  • Not drunk. Taylor's personality changed after her benign brain tumor operation -- she sort of became like Estelle Getty on GOLDEN GIRLS: she could no longer censor herself, but no one wanted to come out and say it.

  • isn't Elizabeth Taylor absolutely fantastic? I love her. She is awesome.

  • She wasn't drunk! She was just being her true adorable, fun-lovin' self!!!...

  • @VisionofLoveandPeace I dont like her very much but to be fair, the wablely head seems to be from medication, I mean, druk people cant read Erin Brockovich correctly.

  • great and funny

  • dick clark has a dead dick.

  • "...and it's flashing 'envelope' " Love it
