Once, during an audition for the role in the film The Return of Lassie, the director asked the actress to take off her makeup, but she just smiled and said that she was not wearing makeup. Know the shocking reason of her beauty.
Hollywood star and stunning actress Elizabeth Taylor was blessed with many talents and incredible beauty. At the time when the actress’s career began, there was no plastic surgery yet, and her appearance stood out greatly from other actresses. Once, during an audition for a role in the film “The Return of Lassie,” the director asked the actress to take off her makeup, but she just smiled and said that she wasn’t wearing makeup.
So what is Elizabeth Taylor’s secret?
The answer is simple – Elizabeth had a rare mutation called distichiasis. This anomaly is quite rare and occurs in people approximately 1 time in 1,000,000. It is characterized by the appearance of a second row of eyelashes, which makes the eyes especially expressive. Elizabeth also had a very unusual eye color: blue with a purple tint. Until now, according to the Google search engine, Taylor’s eye color is the most requested.
But every coin has a flip side. So, until her death in 2011, the actress struggled with many diseases, which, according to doctors, could also be associated with this mutation. She had a heart condition, had multiple joint replacements, brain surgery, had part of her uterus removed, and had problems with alcohol and drugs.
However, all the actress’s acquaintances noted her strong character and willpower, which, even with terrible diagnoses, allowed her to live to the age of 79.
