THE Liz Kwiz

Frayed Knot Mar 23 2011 08:57 AM

When it comes to Liz there's really only one quiz you can give. No, not movies, not Oscars, not Golden Globes ... but Husbands of course! Liz was famously married eight times to seven different men. Your mission -- Name them (closed book obviously).

Richard Burton (twice). Larry Fortensky. (Thanks to David Letterman for joking about that name, thereby cementing it in my mind.) Eddie Fisher. Mickey Rooney. Larry King. Henry VIII. Charlie Sheen.

Frayed Knot Mar 23 2011 09:06 AM Re: THE Liz Kwiz

Surprisingly, none of Larry King, Mickey Rooney, or Henry VIII are correct.

Virginia Senator John Warner was Mr. Elizabeth Taylor.

Frayed Knot Mar 23 2011 09:12 AM Re: THE Liz Kwiz

Conrad Nicholson [known as "Nicky"] Hilton [u:3s1y5011]Jr.[/u:3s1y5011] to be specific, but the judges will award you the correct answer.

Some guy with two first names, and the last one's Todd? Like, Mike Todd or Shep Todd?

Frayed Knot Mar 23 2011 09:22 AM Re: THE Liz Kwiz

Mike Todd - born Avrom Hirsch Goldbogen, the son of an Orthodox Rabbi - was Liz's #3 (coincidently she was his 3rd also). He was also the only one she never divorced as Todd went down in an airplane.

Michael Wilder (or is it Wilding)

Frayed Knot Mar 23 2011 11:42 AM Re: THE Liz Kwiz Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Mar 23 2011 04:48 PM

British-born (as was Liz) actor Michael Wilding was hubby numero dos I guess moving from him to another Michael next made it easy as she didn't have to have the towels re-monogrammed.

I peeked.

Frayed Knot Mar 23 2011 11:47 AM Re: THE Liz Kwiz

For some odd reason I actually knew all the names. I did have to confirm the order and also looked up a lot of the added details.

themetfairy Mar 23 2011 12:20 PM Re: THE Liz Kwiz

I know the names in order (despite the Wilder/Wilding mental block). Feel free to quiz me at will on the subject.

Nitpick: it's Eddy Fisher. Like Carrie Fisher, not coincidentally.
