QOTD: Liz & Dick's Costume Designer On His First Reaction To Seeing LiLo As Liz
Liz & Dick has only been shooting for a few days, but I'm sure you've already overdosed on every tiny little detail and pictures from that shit. Try to take in one more post, because this quote is just too perfect, too hilarious and TOO much. Salvador Pérez, Liz & Dick's costume designer, talked to People about transforming an L.A. County Jail legend into a Hollywood legend. Make sure there's a soft mat on the floor below you, because you will fall out of your chair after reading Salvador's reaction to seeing LiLo as La Liz for the first time:
"There was an audible gasp. You’d swear it was Elizabeth. She just walked into the clothes and became Elizabeth Taylor."
I'm sure that audible gasp sounded a lot like the audible gasp you'd make while watching a runaway train careen toward you in slow motion. It was a "....the fuck did I get myself into?" kind of gasp. But I love Salvador for that. I laughed so hard that tears welled up in my eyes and temporarily blurred my version. And you know, in that blurry moment, that picture of LiLo sort of did look like Elizabeth Taylor!
Oh, and Salvador also said that LiLo's waist is 23 inches. Oh, that Salvador. Bitch just wants us to laugh until piss shoots out of our eye holes. And here's a few more pictures from yesterday's shoot. Either the whole thing takes place on a boat or Lifetime got their Hollywood legends mixed up and they're really making a Natalie Wood biopic instead.


Barbour is a good brand which is famous for barbour jacket. You may wonder what is a barbour jacket and which barbour jacket to buy. Wonderful barbour jackets in barbour shop can tell you. Among jackets barbour, great quilted barbour and hot barbour intenational are good choices.

I think she looks pretty here *ducks*
I will say it's photoshopped to all hell (note the indent left by slimming down her right arm - low budget ps FAIL) and she STILL looks nothing like Liz.
nada.
when I was lilos age, I had a 21 inch waist, she's nowhere near that. I call bullshit on her measurements, actually I call bullshit on lilo forever.

I read that as, "There was an audible gasp. She just walked away with the clothes."
Maybe this will turn into a comedy or spoof. I'd love to hear a laugh track, because EVERYONE knows this girl can't act, doesn't look like Elizabeth, and doesn't sound like Elizabeth! Are the producers just humoring her? I feel like this would be a good stoner movie to watch.
ummm...photoshop artist forgot to "skinny up" her right arm in comparison to her left arm. it's understandable though, she's probably burning through Lifetime's film budget with her requests for cigarettes and a full-time orange cone mover.

you forgot to mention that Salvador showed up to this interview with a guide dog
=============================================
LOL!!! Ophy you made me spill coffee down my chin with that one!
she looks more like sharon stone in a bad wig.
As for the PELUCAS designer, somebody should tell them that the wig situation is NOT going on AT ALL! Those wigs are total roadkill (wink )
They keep shoving this clusterfuck down our throats, don't they? Cracken looks nothing like Elizabeth Taylor. Posed photoshopped photos could make anyone look like ET. In the photos from the actual shoot Hohan looks like Hohan in a brunette wig. Can't wait for the review blasting this bitch's 'performance'. And Miss Taylor HATED being called Liz and never called Burton Dick, always Richard or a pet name.
She looks like she's playing dress up. I hope people Youtube some choice clips from this mess, because I'm not planning on figuring out when I need to watch this. But I do need to see how she messes this up.

"Bye, Whore" -MK
you forgot to mention that Salvador showed up to this interview with a guide dog.
She will be ridiculed possibly even more than in that cinematic masterspiece of shit "I Know Who Killed Me" or as I like to call it: I Know Who Killed My Career: Me and my alcoholic stage mother.
Body language is terrible. No acting chops. Makes me sick to see this one trick pony play Elizabeth Taylor. Against her family's wishes too. Sad.
This crackhead bitch!
RIP La Liz!
I dunno, *shrugs,* she looks pretty good to me.

While that banner pic of blo as The Liz is the best I've ever seen since I was a fetus, that gasp sound IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE STILLLL a gluten-intolerant gastric disturbance on the galactic and ecliptic plane conjuncting Mars and Pluto with a healthy dose of coke/bath salts delusion. Blo ain't fooling nobody; ANYBODY WILLING TO PAY 7k TO A MAKEUP ARTIST CAN TRANSFORM INTO MFKING LIZ. Let's all go get violet contacts and some Sephora/M.A.C. mocha "bronzer/definer" with a lip plumper and we'd probably give this tramp a run. FFS, can't

OMG! I can't wait for this Epic Fail to air.
It's gonna be better than Showgirls, Buckarooo Banzai II & Shock Treatment all rolled up in to one!
I'm still trying to understand the hows and whys of the immensely talented Grant Bowler ending up in Velveeta vérité like this.
Is it wrong that I keep calling this movie Diz & Lick?
Submitted by Lesbian Sourfruit: "There is only one word for this mess and that is: BOOM!"
Was that an intentional reference to the film in which Liz and Dick starred? It's my other favorite Taylor movie. Written by Tennessee Williams, with Noel Coward, too! It's bizarre and beautiful and one of the characters wears a dress I will have copied if I ever get rich. It's a campy mess. I highly recommend it if you have time to waste. They chew up the scenery something fierce.
Good Lord, they must have a dozen ghostwriters on staff coming up with all this "OMG I couldn't believe my eyes, she's so awesome" drivel supposedly coming from the crew. Or maybe supplying them with unlimited Xanax, I dunno.
Yes, LiLo looks really good here, and I love love LOVE the outfit...but a hot shower, a professional makeup artist/hairstylist, and gorgeous clothes will do wonders for just about anybody.
This is the same hype bullshit they did when Kate Holmes portrayed Jackie Kennedy and it was a BOMB!
They are trying to hype the shit outta this girl to keep people interested in this mess.
She looks like Lindsay Lohan.

Ha Deb, it's a losing battle, isn't it? Should the movie not be made at all then (nothing would get made these days) OR if you did film it, who else would have the presence, beauty, talent to play her? I can't think of any actors today who could play Burton much less Taylor... Imagine if they tried to do Bogart and Bacall? *I know it's been tried* lol And they must be a name to bring in financing... and be super young (de rigueur today) I just don't know... Don't even mention Katie as Jackie! Paper-thin copies of the characters they're playing! bah humbug
This pic's not bad, she could play Delta Burke! ;P

Here is a good blog post about that part of her life. She was condemned by the Pope! The person wrote a long post but it's interesting.

my point was not to wrong you but to point out that that Williams bitch can actually (:)) act as opposed to little Linds here.
Yes she was good on Dawson's Creek.
:)
Keep it coming, Michael, there is so much SHIT out there making it seem like this is perfect casting and someone needs to spread the TRUTH.
Lindsay can hide behind Lifetime and photoshop but you can't elude the camera. Elizabeth Taylor had a very distinct appeal on screen, a "stillness" - she fit so famously well into frame and I don't think Lindsay can bring it.
Also, it's over as soon as she speaks....Lindsay's voice is dreadful.

Hey girl! It seems like that "different time" was ages ago. I love TCM, and the other night they ran Bette Davis in two different portrayals if Elizabeth I - 16 years apart. The first movie, with yummy Errol Flynn from 1939.*
The point is that it wasn't just about changing your hair color or props. It was really acting and becoming the character portrayed. I do agree with whoever said that Michelle Williams did just that in "My Week With Marilyn".
I also don't think Lifetime, or whoever else put this Liz & Dick-Shitfest together deserves our attention. Look, I watched a couple of episodes of Katie Holmes as Jackie Kennedy in that awful miniseries from last year. I can't unsee or unhear that awful accent!
*(from Wiki)
"] She appeared in three other box office hits in 1939, The Old Maid with Miriam Hopkins, Juarez with Paul Muni and The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex with Errol Flynn. The latter was her first color film and her only color film made during the height of her career. To play the elderly Elizabeth I of England, Davis shaved her hairline and eyebrows. During filming she was visited on the set by the actor Charles Laughton. She commented that she had a "nerve" playing a woman in her sixties, to which Laughton replied, "Never not dare to hang yourself. That's the only way you grow in your profession. You must continually attempt things that you think are beyond you, or you get into a complete rut." Recalling the episode many years later, Davis remarked that Laughton's advice had influenced her throughout her career.[34]"

You tell 'em Deb, I AM SICK OF IT too! Although MK makes it worth reading at least.
And both Monroe and Taylor were gorgeous, but that was a different time, big stars had a special quality then that very few have now. Like today, an Amber Heard looks way more beautiful than a Lohan. And even she'd be considered a light-weight compared to an Ava or Hayworth, no?
Hi btw! ;p

Does Sal in wardrobe there think Liz's scarf around the head look is going to make up for the fact that Hohan looks nothing like Liz in any shape or form? (even with beer goggles)
She must stink to stand next to. Lots of photos of her smoking away. I bet White Oprah or Ali are the ones with the telescopic lense taking these photos and selling them to TMZ :) HAHA
I think she looks more like Mila Kunis in that picture. Poor Mila.

What ever you think of Marilyn Monroe or Elizabeth Taylor as people, you must admit that they are true cultural icons. Both were gorgeous in very different ways.

There was actually hardly any resemblance
In YOUR EYES there was hardly any resemblance. In MINE there was resemblance. "Actually" means "in fact" - and there is no "actually" where a matter of subjectivity is concerned, only a difference of perspective.
Well, I´m no native speaker/writer, so thanks for the correction. Anyways, my point was not to wrong you but to point out that that Williams bitch can actually (:)) act as opposed to little Linds here.

It's just goddamn awful and not in a good way. It's roadkill and it stinks already.

Neither deserve to have this low-life get payed to pretend to be them.

What the fuck, though. I mean, you could **kind of** see the resemblance between Michelle Williams and Marilyn Monroe
There was actually hardly any resemblance, BUT she PLAYED the part well and convinced me that way. Also the costumes were wonderful, they had a budget as opposed to that crap. (I liked the Marylin movie but whatever).
Also as a costume designer myself I feel bad for poor Salvador given what he has to work with: obviously poor budget and THAT mess, that has a final take on the costumes...!? I´d rather kill myself than have Lilo telling me how to do my job! Hence the wrong hair maybe? maybe she demanded long hair and they gave in!?
Submitted by MissJaneTexas: "okay, so that LovesJOliePitt ( i was lurking and laughing at you guys last night) cannot be real. Right? Like she has to be doing the opposite troll and just saying stupid shit. Those people CANNOT be serious. Right? Right?
And I love how they think that is all one person talking to themselves and that WHamo is female (ha!). Then I thought about how a certain person gets accused of being all the screennames here and maybe there are a bunch of people out there that hate us at dlisted and come to harass us. Then I got scared"
Oh, they are truly stupid. If they really did come here and stalk Whamo, they'd know he was a straight dude. Dumbasses.
I look at it like being an anthropologist, visiting a wild colony of imbeciles.
My absolute FAVorite is THIS:
"Bobby @ 05/29/2012 at 3:39 pm

She is so beautiful inside and out, she looks just like Cheryl Hines."
They all APPROVED this. First of all, Cheryl Hines looks like a monkey and nothing like Angie. Angelina is much prettier.
But Cheryl Hines was dating RFKJr WHO WAS STILL MARRIED to Mary when Mary hanged herself.
Those stupid fucks don't even know enough about the rest of the world to know when their precious Angelina is being dissed. The subtlety escapes them.
Dog: Yup, I'm Eastern time. The most active one seems to be the Angelina one. Then the Jen one. I've left three in the Brad one and no one cares.
And no one seems to care about the ones I post in the regular celeb posts. But I do it anyway, because I crack up as I'm composing them.
Yes I am sick.
